[Then] arose from their rest, ready and valiant,
15 [Gold-bedecked] soldiers, and girded their swords.
The noble knights went now to the door
And seized their swords, [Sigeferth] and Eaha,
And to the other door [Ordlaf and Guthlaf],
And [Hengest] who followed to help the defense.
20 Now [Guthere restrained] Garulf from strife,
Lest fearless at the first of the fight he rush
To the door and daringly endanger his life,
Since now it was stormed by so stalwart a hero.
