...fee and gift,
that to aid him, aged, in after days,

Forth he fared at the fated moment,
sturdy Scyld to the shelter of God.
Then they bore him over to ocean’s billow,
loving clansmen, as late he charged them,
while wielded words the winsome Scyld,
the leader beloved who long had ruled....

``Still, couldst thou take my intent,
``Know what procured me our Company's votes---

...WHEN you shall see me lined by tool of Time,
My lauded beauties carried off from me,
My eyes no longer stars as in their prime,

when they harried the Persians home;
And the Roman ships were the wings of strength
that bore up the empire, Rome;
