Spoke of our lay in unsparing praise,

That they never had heard a nobler song.

Then I roamed through all the realm of the Goths;

110 Unceasing I sought the surest of friends,

The crowd of comrades of the court of Eormanric.

Hethca sought I and Beadeca and the Harlungs,

[Emerca] sought I and Fridla and East-Gota,

Sage and noble, the sire of Unwen.

115 Secca sought I and [Becca], Seafola and Theodoric,

Heathoric and [Sifeca], Hlithe and Incgentheow.
