[Ansteorra] good norman blood

[HerrDetlef]

I must apologize for my baron, Your Highness. He's Norman, and Normans are
not known to think about what they're saying before they say it. He's also
rather distracted by the recent attempts at usurpation of his own tenure.

Please forgive him. He speaks too much French for his own good. It's either
that or that ghastly Norman wine.

Hwæt! We Gardena         in geardagum,

hu ða æþelingas         ellen fremedon.
Oft Scyld Scefing         sceaþena þreatum,
monegum mægþum,         meodosetla ofteah,
egsode eorlas.         Syððan ærest wearð
feasceaft funden,         he þæs frofre gebad,
weox under wolcnum,         weorðmyndum þah,
oðþæt him æghwylc         þara ymbsittendra
ofer hronrade         hyran scolde,
gomban gyldan.         þæt wæs god cyning!
