[64]. “Yet one boon | I beg of thee,

The last of boons | in my life it is:

Let the pyre be built | so broad in the field

That room for us all | will ample be,

(For us who slain | with Sigurth are.)

. . . . . . . . | . . . . . . . .

Shrouds full fair, | and fallen slaves,

And besides the Hunnish | hero burn me.
