Might ever unburning any while bide,

Live out through the deep for the flame of the drake.

Out then from his breast, for as bollen as was he,

Let the Weder-Geats' chief the words be out faring;

The stout-hearted storm'd and the stave of him enter'd

Battle-bright sounding in under the hoar stone.

Then uproused was hate, and the hoard-warden wotted

The speech of man's word, and no more while there was

Friendship to fetch. Then forth came there first

The breath of the evil beast out from the stone,
