blazoned with jewels�此�the blade had melted�察�burned was the bright sword�察�

her blood was so hot�察�so poisoned the hell´sprite who perished within there。 

Soon he was swimming who safe saw in combat downfall of demons�察�up´

waves�察�where the wandering fiend her life´days left and this lapsing world。 

Swam then to strand the sailors'´refuge�察�sturdy´in´spirit�察�of sea´booty glad�察�

thanked�察  �the     thane´band   choice       of  their   chieftain   blithe�察  �that  safe   and

     BEOWULF spake�察�bairn of Ecgtheow�此  �Lo�察�now�察�this sea´booty�察�son 

of Healfdene�察�Lord of Scyldings�察�we've lustily brought thee�察�sign of glory�察�

thou seest it here。 Not lightly did I with my life escape� �In war under water 

this work I essayed with endless effort�察�and even so my strength had been 

lost had the Lord not shielded me。 Not a whit could I with Hrunting do in 

work of war�察�though the weapon is good�察�yet a sword the Sovran of Men 

vouchsafed me to spy on the wall there�察�in splendor hanging�察�old�察�gigantic�察�

 how oft He guides the friendless wight�  �and I fought with that brand�察�

felling   in   fight�察  �since   fate   was   with   me�察  �the   house's   wardens。  That   war´ 

sword then all burned�察�bright blade�察�when the blood gushed o'er it�察�battle´ 

sweat hot�察  �but the  hilt   I  brought   back   from  my  foes。  So   avenged   I their 

fiendish deeds death´fall of Danes�察�as was due and right。 And this is my 

hest�察�that in Heorot now safe thou canst sleep with thy soldier band�察�and 

every thane of all thy folk both old and young�察�no evil fear�察�Scyldings' lord�察�

from that side again�察�aught ill for thy earls�察�as erst thou must� ─�Then the 

golden hilt�察�for that gray´haired leader�察�hoary hero�察�in hand was laid�察�giant´ 

wrought�察�old。 So owned and enjoyed it after downfall of devils�察�the Danish 

lord�察  �wonder´smiths'   work�察  �since   the   world   was   rid   of   that   grim´souled 

fiend�察  �the   foe   of   God�察  �murder´marked�察  �and   his   mother   as   well。   Now   it 

passed into power of the people's king�察�best of all that the oceans bound 

who have scattered their gold o'er Scandia's isle。 Hrothgar spake  the hilt 

he   viewed�察  �heirloom  old�察  �where   was   etched   the   rise   of   that   far´off   fight 

when   the   floods   o'erwhelmed�察  �raging   waves�察  �the   race   of   giants   ��fearful 

their   fate�。��察  �a   folk   estranged   from   God   Eternal�此  �whence   guerdon   due   in 

that   waste   of   waters   the   Wielder   paid   them。   So   on   the   guard   of   shining 

gold in runic staves it was rightly said for whom the serpent´traced sword 

was wrought�察�best of blades�察�in bygone days�察�and the hilt well wound。  

The wise´one spake�察�son of Healfdene�察�silent were all�此  �Lo�察�so may he 

say who sooth and right follows 'mid folk�察�of far times   mindful�察�a land´ 

warden old�撮�1�А�that this earl belongs to the better breed� �So�察�borne aloft�察�

thy   fame   must   fly�察  �O   friend   my   Beowulf�察  �far   and   wide   o'er   folksteads 

many。     Firmly    thou    shalt  all  maintain�察    �mighty    strength    with   mood     of

wisdom。 Love of mine will I assure thee�察�as�察�awhile ago�察�I promised�察�thou 

shalt prove a stay in future�察�in far´off years�察�to folk of thine�察�to the heroes a 

help。   Was   not   Heremod   thus   to   offspring   of   Ecgwela�察  �Honor´Scyldings�察�

nor grew for their grace�察�but for grisly slaughter�察�for doom of death to the 

Danishmen。 

     He slew�察�wrath´swollen�察�his shoulder´comrades�察�companions at board� �

So he passed alone�察�chieftain haughty�察�from human cheer。 Though him the 

Maker with might endowed�察�delights of power�察�and uplifted high above all 

men�察�yet blood´fierce his mind�察�his breast´hoard�察�grew�察�no bracelets gave 

he to Danes as was due�察�he endured all joyless strain of struggle and stress 

of woe�察�long feud with his folk。 Here find thy lesson� �Of virtue advise thee� �

This verse I have said for thee�察�wise from lapsed winters。 Wondrous seems 

how   to   sons   of   men Almighty   God   in   the   strength   of   His   spirit   sendeth 

wisdom�察�estate�察�high station�此�He swayeth all things。 Whiles He letteth right 

lustily   fare   the   heart   of   the   hero   of   high´born   race�察     �in   seat   ancestral 

assigns him bliss�察�his folk's sure fortress in fee to hold�察�puts in his power 

great   parts   of   the   earth�察  �empire   so   ample�察  �that   end   of   it   this   wanter´of´ 

wisdom   weeneth   none。   So   he   waxes   in   wealth�察  �nowise   can   harm   him 

illness   or   age�察  �no   evil   cares   shadow   his   spirit�察  �no   sword´hate   threatens 

from ever an enemy�此�all the world wends at his will�察�no worse he knoweth�察�

till   all   within   him   obstinate   pride   waxes   and   wakes   while   the   warden 

slumbers�察�the spirit's sentry�察�sleep is too fast which masters his might�察�and 

the murderer nears�察�stealthily shooting the shafts from his bow� �

     ��1�А   �That   is�察  �whoever      has   as   wide    authority    as   I  have    and   can 

remember so far back so many instances of heroism�察�may well say�察�as I say�察�

that no better hero ever lived than Beowulf。;
