So þat he knewen at þe laste,
They know he is Birkabeyn’s son and heir.
Þat he was birkabeynes sone,
Þat was here king, þat was hem wone
Wel to yeme, and wel were
Ageynes uten-laddes here.
“For it was neuere yet a broþer
In al denemark so lich anoþer,
So þis man þat is so fayr
Als birkabeyn, he is hise eyr.”
