Now may God in his keeping have those who there lie dead,
And the holy men there dwelling. Those then homeward sped
Who still upon the Wulpensand were left among the living;
After all their sorrows, they reached their fatherland, no more in warfare striving.
Tale the Nineteenth.
HOW THE HEGELINGS WENT HOME TO THEIR OWN LAND.
[919]
The kinsmen of King Hettel upon the sands had left
Many in death’s fast keeping; never knights bereft
