It came in his mind <br>to bid his henchmen a hall uprear, <br>ia master mead-house, mightier far <br>than ever was seen by the sons of earth, <br>and within it, then, to old and young <br>he would all allot that the Lord had sent him, <br>save only the land and the lives of his men. <br>Wide, I heard, was the work commanded, <br>for many a tribe this mid-earth round, <br>to fashion the folkstead. It fell, as he ordered, <br>in rapid achievement that ready it stood there, <br>of halls the noblest: Heorot he named it <br>whose message had might in many a land. <br>Not reckless of promise, the rings he dealt, <br>treasure at banquet: there towered the hall, <br>high, gabled wide, the hot surge waiting <br>of furious flame. Nor far was that day <br>when father and son-in-law stood in feud <br>for warfare and hatred that woke again. <br>With envy and anger an evil spirit <br>endured the dole in his dark abode, <br>that he heard each day the din of revel <br>high in the hall: there harps rang out, <br>clear song of the singer. He sang who knew <br>tales of the early time of man, <br>how the Almighty made the earth, <br>fairest fields enfolded by water, <br>set, triumphant, sun and moon <br>for a light to lighten the land-dwellers, <br>and braided bright the breast of earth <br>with limbs and leaves, made life for all <br>of mortal beings that breathe and move. <br>So lived the clansmen in cheer and revel <br>a winsome life, till one began <br>to fashion evils, that field of hell. <br>Grendel this monster grim was called, <br>march-riever mighty, in moorland living, <br>in fen and fastness; fief of the giants <br>the hapless wight a while had kept <br>since the Creator his exile doomed. <br>On kin of Cain was the killing avenged <br>by sovran God for slaughtered Abel. <br>Ill fared his feud, and far was he driven, <br>for the slaughter's sake, from sight of men. <br>Of Cain awoke all that woful breed, <br>Etins and elves and evil-spirits, <br>as well as the giants that warred with God <br>weary while: but their wage was paid them!</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Anonymous+Olde+English">Anonymous Olde English</a><div class=q>
