The Viking Age. Volume 2 (of 2) / The early history, manners, and customs of the ancestors of the English-speaking nations

by Paul B. Du Chaillu

Early to Gunnar,

A man skilled in riding;

Knefród was he called;

He came to the burgh of Gjuki

And to the hall of Gunnar,

To the benches around the fire,

And to the well-loved beer.

There the warriors drank

Wine in the foreign hall,

Silent and hiding their fear;
