THIT STAT IN AL VSA BURGA.

Ho vsa Denamarka [55] fara vs vleren gvngon 1600 nd 2 jer [56] nei Aldland vrgongen is. Thrvch Wodins dor nd dertenhed was thene Magy bas wrden ovir Skenlandis astardel. Wra berga nd wr-n se ne tvrade hi navt ne kvma. Thju Moder wildet navt werha, hja sprek nde keth, ik sja nen frese an sina wepne, men wel vmbe tha Skenlander wer to nimmande, thrvchdam hja bastered nd vrderen sind. Vppa mena acht toch te man alen. Thervmbe is-t im leten. Grat 100 jer leden byondon tha Denemarkar to wandelja mith hjam. Hja jevon him ysere wepne nd redskip ther fori wandeldon hja golden syrhedon bijunka kaper nd yserirtha. Thju Moder sand bodon nd red-er, hja skolde thju wandel fara leta. Ther were frese seide hju fori hjara sedum, nd bitham hja hjara sede vrleren, thn skolde hja ak hjara frydom vrljasa. Men tha Denemarkar nede narne ara nei, hja nilda navt bigrippa that hjara sede vrbrde kvste, thervmbe ne meldon hja hja navt. To longa lesta brochton hja ajne wepne nd liftochta wei. Men tht kwad wrocht hjara geia. Hjara lichema wrdon biladen mei blik nd skin, men hjara arka spynton nd skvra wrdon letoch. Krek hondred jer eftere dei that et forma skip mit liftochta fona kad faren was, kem ermode nd lek thrvch tha anderna binna, honger spreda sina wjvka nd strek vppet land del, twispalt hlip stolte in overe streta nd forth to tha hsa in, ljafde ne kv nen stek longer navt finda nd entracht run ewei. Tht brn wilde eta fon sina mm nd thju mm hede wel syrhedon tha nen eta. Tha wiva kemon to hjara manna, thissa gvngon nei tha greva, tha greva nedon selva nawet of hildon-t skul. Nw most mn tha syrhedon vrsella, men thawila tha stjurar thermei wei brit weron kem frost nd lei-n plonk del vppa se nd wra strete. Tha frost thju brigge red hede, stop wakandon therwr to-t land ut nd vred klywade vpper setel. In stede fon tha owera to biwakande spandon hja hjara horsa for hjara togum nd runon nei Skenland tha. Tha Skenlander, tham ney weron nei that land hjarar ethla kemon nei tha Denemark.u.m. Vppen h.e.l.le nacht kemon hja alla. Nw seidon hja that hja rjucht hede vppet land hjarar ethlon nd thahwil that mn thervr kmpade kemon tha Finna in tha letoga thorpa nd runadon mith tha bern ewei. Thertrvch nd that hja nen G.o.da wepne navt nedon, ded hjam tha ksa vrljasa nd thermei hjari frydom, hwand thene Magy wrde bas. That kem that hja Fryas tex navt lesde nd hira redjevinga warlased hede.

Ther send svme ther mene that hja thrvch tha greva vrreden send, that tha famna tht long sperath hedon, tha sa hvam sa ther vr ketha wilde, tham is mvla wrdon to smorath mith golden kedne. Wi ne mugan thervr nen ordel to fellande, men wi willath jo tohropa, ne len navt to sere vppa wisdom nd duged ni fon jvwa Forsta, ni fon jowa famna, hwand skel et halda sa mot allera mannalik waka ovir sin ajna tochta nd for-t mena held.

Twa jer neidam kem thene Magy selva mith en flate fon lichte kanum, tha Moder fon Texland nd tha foddik to rawane.

Ths rge seke bistonde-r thes nachtis anda winter by storne tydum as wind glde nd hejel to jenst tha anderna fetere. Thi utkik ther mende thater awet herde stk sin balle vp. Tha drei as et ljucht fon er tore vppet ronddel falda, sa-r that al felo wepende manna wra burchwal weron. Nw gvng-er to vmbe tha klokke to lettane, tha et were to let. er tha were red were, weron al twa thusand ina wer vmbe tha porte to rammande. Strid hwilde thervmbe kirt, hwand thrvchdam tha wera navt nen G.o.de wacht halden nede, kemon alle om.

Hwil that alrek drok to kmpane were, was ther en wla Fin to there flete jefta bedrum fon there Moder inglupth, and wilde hja nedgja. Tha thju Moder werd-im of that er bekward tojenst tha wach strumpelde. Tha-r wither vpa ben were stek er sin swerd to ir buk in segsande, nilst min kul navt sa skilst min swerd ha. After im kem en skiper fona Denemarka, thisse nam sin swerd nd hif thene Fin thrvch sina hole. Therut flat swart blod nd thervr swefde-n blawe logha. Thi Magy let thju Moder vpa sinra skip forplegja. As hju nw wither alsa fere hel nd beter wer that hju fst spreka machte, seide thene Magy that hju mith fara moste, tha that hju hira foddik nd famna halda skolde, that hju en stat skolde nyta sa hach as hju to fara na nede kenth. Forth seide-r tht hi hiri freja skolde in ajnwarde fon sinum forsta, jef er master skolde wertha over alle landa nd folkra Fryas. Hi seide that hju that bijae nd bijechta most, owers skolde-r vnder felo weja sterva leta. As er ther after al sinra forsta om ira leger to gadurad hede frejer ld, Frana vrmites i klarsjande biste most m.enis segsa of ik master skil wertha over alle landa nd folkra Fryas. Frana dede as melde hja him navt. To longa lesta epende hju hira wera nde keth, min agun wrde thjstred, tha that ore ljucht degth vp in minara sele. Jes, ik sja-t. Hark Irtha nd wes blyde mith my. Vndera tydum that Aldland svnken is, stand thju forma speke fon thet Jol an top. Thernei is hju del gvngon nd vsa frydom mith tham. As er twa speka jeftha 2000 jer del trled het, sa skilun tha svna vpstonda ther tha forsta nd prestera thrvch hordom bi-t folk teled hve, nd tojenst hjara tata tjugha. Thi alle skilum thrvch mort swika, men hwat hja keth hve skil forth bilywa nd frchdber wertha in-a bosme thera kloke mnniska, alsa lik G.o.de sedum ther del leid wrde in thinra skat. Jeta thsand jer skil thju speke then del nyga nd al mara syga anda thjusternesse nd in blod, ovir thi utstirt thrvch tha laga ther forsta nd prestera. Thernei skil thet mornerad wither anfanga to glora. Thit sjande skilun tha falska forsta nd prester alsamen with frydom kmpa nd woxelja, men frydom, ljafde nd endracht skil-et folk in hjara wach nema nd mit thet jol risa uta wla pol. Tht rjucht tht erost allena glorade, skil than fon lejar laja to-n logha wertha. That blod thera rgum skil ovir thin lif strama, men thu ne mugth et navt to thi nema. To tha lesta skil tht feninige kwik ther vp asa nd therof sterva. Alle wla skednese tham forsunnen send vmbe tha forsta nd prestera to boga, skilun an logha ofred wertha. Forth skilun al thinra bern mith fretho leva. Tha hju utspreken hede, seg hju del. Men thene Magy tham hja navt wel forstan hede kreth, ik hv thi frejeth, jef ik bas skilde wertha ovir alle landa nd folkra Fryas, nd nw hste to en other sproken. Frana rjuchte hiri wither, sach im star an nd kethe: er sjugun etmelde om send, skil thin sele mitha nachtfuglon to tha grawa omme wara nd thin lik skil ledsa vppa bodem fona se. el wel seide thene Magy mith vrborgne wodin, segs men tht ik kvme. Forth seider to jenst en sinar rakkarum, werp that wif vr skippes bord. Althus wer-et ende fon-re leste thera Moderum [57]. Wreke willath wi ther vr navt ne hropa, tham skil tyd nima. Men thsand wara thsand mel willath wi Frya fternei hropa: wak-wak-wak.

HO-T THENE MAGY FORTH VRGVNGON IS.

Nei that tha modder vrden was, leter tha foddik nd tha famna to sina skip to brenga bijunka alle inbold ther im likte. Forth gvng er tht Flymar vp, hwand hi wilde tha fam fon Medeasblik jeftha fon Stavora gabja nd tham to Moder makja. Tha ther weron hja vp hjara hodum brocht. Tha stjurar fon Stavora nd fon tht Alderga hedon hini gern to Jonis togen, men tha grate flate were vppen fere tocht t. Nw gvngon hja to nd foron mith hjra littige flate nei Medeasblik nd hildon hja skul after that ly thera bamun. Thi Magy nakade Medeasblik bi h.e.l.le dei nd skynander svnne. Thach gvngon sina ljuda drist drist wei vppera burch to runnande. Men as allet folk mith tha botum land was, kemon vsa stjurar utere kreke wei nd skaton hjara pila mith tarbarntin bollum vp sinra flate. Hja weron alsa wel rjucht that felo sinra skepun bistonda anna brond weron. Tham vppa skepun wachton, skaton ak nei vs tha, thach tht ne rojade nawet. As er to lesta en skip al barnande nei-t skip thes Magy dryf, bifel-er sin skiper hi skolde ofhade, men thene skiper that were thene Denemarker ther thene Fin felad hede, andere, thv hest vse eremoder nei tha bodem fona se svnden to meldande thatste kvma skolde, thit skoste thrvch tha drokhed wel vrjetta; nw wil ik njude thatste thin word jecht. Thi Magy wild-im ofwera; men thene skiper, en fte Fryas nd sterik lik en jokoxe, klipade beda sinum honda om sin hole nd hif hini vr bord into tht wellande hef. Forth hes er sin brune skild an top nd for rjucht to rjucht an nei vsa flate. Therthrvch kemon tha famna vnforlet to vs, men tha foddik was utgvngon nd nimman wiste ho-t kemen was. Tha hja vppa vnfordene skepa heradon, that thene Magy vrdrvnken was, brde hja hinne, hwand tha stjurar thera mest Denemarkar weron. Nei that tha flate fer enoch ewei were, wendon vsa stjurar nd skaton hjara barnpila vppa tha Finna del. Tha tha Finna thus sagon, ho hja vrreden weron, hlip alrik thrvch vr ekkdrum nd ther nere longer nen herichhed ni bod. To thisre stonde run tha were hju ut tere burch. Tham navt ne fljuchte, werth afmakad, nd ther fljuchte fvnd sin ende into tha polum fon et Krylinger wald.
