+Of garments of leather, and hemp patch’d together, + The Queen then a present made him. +“These I will not wear,” bold Ramund he said, + “They beseem me not fair,” said Ramund the young. + +“Your garments of tow and leather bestow + On the cleaners of trencher and platter.” +The Lady to give him fresh clothes was not slow, + And of sammet and silk were the latter. +“Yes, these will I wear,” bold Ramund he said, + “They beseem me right fair,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he into the shop now hies, + Where the best of all tailors was sitting: +“Now wilt thou, O tailor, so dext’rous and wise, + Make clothes for Ramund fitting?” +“And why should I not?” the tailor he said, + “Then thou’lt do well I wot,” said Ramund the young. + +“Twice twenty-five ells for the breeches take, + Fifteen for the points of the breeches; +And them thou must strong and durable make + If thou therein settest stitches.” +“These are too tight,” bold Ramund he said, + “I can’t stride out aright,” said Ramund the young. + +Now Ramund his ships beside the shore + With everything needful prepareth; +And away, away, the salt ocean o’er + To the land of the Jutuns he beareth. +“We are come to this soil,” bold Ramund he said, + “And withouten much toil,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he wanders along the strand, + There seven tall Giants faced him: +“If I take Ramund in my left hand + I afar from the land will cast him.” +“You’ll not do that alone,” bold Ramund he said, + “Ye must come every one,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund drew out his trusty glaive, + To which Dymling for name he had given; +And dead to the earth with seven blows brave + He hewed the Jotuns seven. +“There ye all seven lie,” bold Ramund he said, + “And still living am I,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund walked on till the big Jutt he spied, + And to see him he sorely wonder’d; +For full fifty ells was his carcase wide, + And his height was nearly a hundred. +“What a breadth, what a height!” bold Ramund he said, + “Dost wish for a fight?” said Ramund the young. + +“Dear Ramund, if thou wilt let me live, + And to me no damage wilt proffer, +I’ll bathe thee in wine, and to thee I will give + Seven bushels of gold from my coffer.” +“Make ’em eight, if you will,” bold Ramund he said, + “I will cut thee down still,” said Ramund the young. + +The first, first day that together they fought + With their naked fists they contested; +Then Ramund he hold of the Jutt’s beard caught + And the flesh from the teeth he wrested. +“Thou grinnest full evil, bold Ramund,” he said, + “Thou look’st worse than the Devil,” said Ramund the young. + +Next day they set to at the rise of the sun, + Again with a rage unexampled; +The huge stone mountain they stood upon + To the earth ’neath their feet was trampled. +“’Tis hard sport, I swear!” the giant he said, + “We began but this year,” said Ramund the young. + +Then Ramund again to his sword recurred, + To which Dymling for name he had given; +And the head of the Jutt, which no ox could have stirred, + He hewed high unto the heaven. +“’Twould not cut well I thought,” bold Ramund he said + “Yet it cut as it ought,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he into the mountain strode, + Where the small trolds house were keeping; +The tears fast down their visages flow’d, + For Ramund they fell to weeping. +“Do ye weep for me,” bold Ramund he said, + “I’ll ne’er weep for ye,” said Ramund the young. + +Now Ramund behold is dealing his blows + Like the Kemps most famed for fighting; +About and around in the cave he goes + To the earth the demons smiting. +“I rule here at my ease,” bold Ramund he said, + “And can do what I please,” said Ramund the young. + +On his ship entered he so vehemently + That it cracked his vehemence under; +In the ship the men all began loudly to bawl + And thought they should certainly founder. +“We shall not sink here,” bold Ramund he said, + “So ye need not to fear,” said Ramund the young. + +Now Ramund he straight seven ships did freight + With the gold which the Trolds had hoarded; +Then across the tide to the land he hied + O’er which the Emperor lorded. +“To this land we are come,” bold Ramund he said, + “We no farther will roam,” said Ramund the young. + +On the white sand Ramund his anchor flung, + The high prow strandward turning; +And the very first man to land that sprung + Was himself, with eagerness burning. +“Now do nothing more,” bold Ramund he said, + “All labour give o’er,” said Ramund the young. + +To the Ball-house he sped, where the kempions play’d + At ball with glee and vigour; +But at his coming all stood adread, + At the sight of so fierce a figure. +“Pretty sport is this same,” bold Ramund he said, + “I’ll make one in the game,” said Ramund the young. + +With fear and dismay upon his brow + From a window the Emperor gazes: +“O who is that man in the yard below + That makes such horrible faces?” +“’Tis I, and with glee,” bold Ramund he said, + “I’ll do battle with thee,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he struck on his sword amain, + The earth to its centre trembled; +The small birds swooned and fell on the plain, + On the bough that were singing assembled. +“Come down to me, knave,” bold Ramund he said, + “Or by God I shall rave,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he into the door now trode, + His face like a burning ember: +“Though iron and steel oppose my road + I’ll penetrate to his chamber.” +“Now be on thy guard,” bold Ramund he said, + “I’m about to strike hard,” said Ramund the young. + +On the door Ramund smote with an iron bar stout, + The castle was rent and parted; +’Neath that blow’s power nod wall and tower, + From their place the windows started. +“You see I broke in,” bold Ramund he said, + “Now at stake is thy skin,” said Ramund the young. + +“Dear Ramund, dear Ramund, my life now spare, + And with benefits thee I’ll cover; +I’ll give thee my youngest daughter fair, + And the half of the land I rule over.” +“Can take all any tide,” bold Ramund he said, + “And thy daughter beside,” said Ramund the young. + +Ramund then drew out Dymling his blade, + Of his valour the trusty assistant; +And he hewed at the Emperor so that his head + Flew fifteen furlongs distant. +“I thought ’twould not sever,” bold Ramund he said, + “But the blood runs however,” said Ramund the young. + + + + +ALF OF ODDERSKIER + + +Alf he dwells at Odderskier, + Is rich and bold withal; +Two stout and stalwart sons has he + Whom men do kempions call. + +Yes, two stout sons of mighty fame + Has Alf of Odderskier; +Of the king who dwells on Upsal fells + They love the daughter fair. + +It was youthful Helmer Kamp, + From stall his courser led; +“O I will hie me up the land + And the king’s fair daughter wed.” + +It was youthful Angelfyr + He sprang on his courser’s back: +“And I will ride to Upsal too, + Though the earth beneath me crack.” + +And when they entered the castle yard + They doffed their cloaks of skin; +Then straight they strode to the high, high hall, + To the monarch of Upsal in. + +In came youthful Helmer Kamp, + With grace and beauty rife: +“O King, thy daughter dear I love, + Wilt give her me for wife?” + +In came youthful Angelfyr, + His steely helmet shone: +“O King, give up thy daughter to me, + And straight from the land begone.” + +Then answered soon the Upsal-King, + And a brave reply he gave: +“On my daughter I’ll no husband force, + She’ll choose whom she will have.” + +“Now many thanks, dear father, that + Thou leav’st the choice to me; +I’ll plight me to young Helmer Kamp, + He’s like a man to see. + +“But I’ll not have young Angelfyr, + He’s an ugly Trold to view; +His father so is, his mother so is, + So are all his kindred too.” + +Then answered the young Angelfyr, + So sorely wroth he grew: +“Come, brother, come to the court-yard down, + For her we will battle do.” + +Then up and spake the Upsal King, + And the Upsal King did say: +“The swords are sharp, the swains are stark, + There’ll be, I trow, good play.” + +Alf he stands at Odderskier, + And he listens the mountains tow’rds; +Then must he hear so far, far off + The clash of his children’s swords. + +And that heard Alf of Odderskier, + So far across the down: +“What have my sons now got in hand? + Why so wrathful are they grown?” + +He tarried then so short a space, + He sprang on his courser red; +And he arrived at Upsala + Before his sons lay dead. + +“Now tell me, youthful Helmer Kamp, + Tell me my dearest son, +Wherefore so free from thy flesh and bone + Those bloody rivers run?” + +Then answered the young Helmer Kamp, + As he writhed him round with pain; +This Angelfyr, my brother, has done + Since the maid he could not gain. + +I have full fifteen mortal wounds, + They are blent with poison all; +But if I had only one of them, + I dead full soon must fall.” + +“Now list to me, young Angelfyr, + Beloved son of mine; +Say, wherefore trembles so the sword, + In that good hand of thine?” + +“Ask’st thou why trembles so the sword + In this right hand of mine? +Because I’ve eighteen mortal wounds, + And to hurt me they combine. + +“I have full eighteen mortal wounds, + And each so deadly sore; +If I had only one of them + I could not live an hour.” + +It was Alf of Odderskier, + An oak by the root uptore; +It was the young Helmer Kamp + Whom dead he laid in gore. + +Now lie the valiant kempions two, + Within a single grave; +And the King to his daughter cannot give + The swain whom she will have. + +Sore sorrows Alf of Odderskier, + His valiant children slain. +Whilst Upsal’s King may still at home + His daughter fair retain. + + LONDON: + Printed for THOMAS J.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: +http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + + +Section 5.

+Of garments of leather, and hemp patch'd together, + The Queen then a present made him. +"These I will not wear," bold Ramund he said, + "They beseem me not fair," said Ramund the young. + +"Your garments of tow and leather bestow + On the cleaners of trencher and platter." +The Lady to give him fresh clothes was not slow, + And of sammet and silk were the latter. +"Yes, these will I wear," bold Ramund he said, + "They beseem me right fair," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he into the shop now hies, + Where the best of all tailors was sitting: +"Now wilt thou, O tailor, so dext'rous and wise, + Make clothes for Ramund fitting?" +"And why should I not?" the tailor he said, + "Then thou'lt do well I wot," said Ramund the young. + +"Twice twenty-five ells for the breeches take, + Fifteen for the points of the breeches; +And them thou must strong and durable make + If thou therein settest stitches." +"These are too tight," bold Ramund he said, + "I can't stride out aright," said Ramund the young. + +Now Ramund his ships beside the shore + With everything needful prepareth; +And away, away, the salt ocean o'er + To the land of the Jutuns he beareth. +"We are come to this soil," bold Ramund he said, + "And withouten much toil," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he wanders along the strand, + There seven tall Giants faced him: +"If I take Ramund in my left hand + I afar from the land will cast him." +"You'll not do that alone," bold Ramund he said, + "Ye must come every one," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund drew out his trusty glaive, + To which Dymling for name he had given; +And dead to the earth with seven blows brave + He hewed the Jotuns seven. +"There ye all seven lie," bold Ramund he said, + "And still living am I," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund walked on till the big Jutt he spied, + And to see him he sorely wonder'd; +For full fifty ells was his carcase wide, + And his height was nearly a hundred. +"What a breadth, what a height!" bold Ramund he said, + "Dost wish for a fight?" said Ramund the young. + +"Dear Ramund, if thou wilt let me live, + And to me no damage wilt proffer, +I'll bathe thee in wine, and to thee I will give + Seven bushels of gold from my coffer." +"Make 'em eight, if you will," bold Ramund he said, + "I will cut thee down still," said Ramund the young. + +The first, first day that together they fought + With their naked fists they contested; +Then Ramund he hold of the Jutt's beard caught + And the flesh from the teeth he wrested. +"Thou grinnest full evil, bold Ramund," he said, + "Thou look'st worse than the Devil," said Ramund the young. + +Next day they set to at the rise of the sun, + Again with a rage unexampled; +The huge stone mountain they stood upon + To the earth 'neath their feet was trampled. +"'Tis hard sport, I swear!" the giant he said, + "We began but this year," said Ramund the young. + +Then Ramund again to his sword recurred, + To which Dymling for name he had given; +And the head of the Jutt, which no ox could have stirred, + He hewed high unto the heaven. +"'Twould not cut well I thought," bold Ramund he said + "Yet it cut as it ought," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he into the mountain strode, + Where the small trolds house were keeping; +The tears fast down their visages flow'd, + For Ramund they fell to weeping. +"Do ye weep for me," bold Ramund he said, + "I'll ne'er weep for ye," said Ramund the young. + +Now Ramund behold is dealing his blows + Like the Kemps most famed for fighting; +About and around in the cave he goes + To the earth the demons smiting. +"I rule here at my ease," bold Ramund he said, + "And can do what I please," said Ramund the young. + +On his ship entered he so vehemently + That it cracked his vehemence under; +In the ship the men all began loudly to bawl + And thought they should certainly founder. +"We shall not sink here," bold Ramund he said, + "So ye need not to fear," said Ramund the young. + +Now Ramund he straight seven ships did freight + With the gold which the Trolds had hoarded; +Then across the tide to the land he hied + O'er which the Emperor lorded. +"To this land we are come," bold Ramund he said, + "We no farther will roam," said Ramund the young. + +On the white sand Ramund his anchor flung, + The high prow strandward turning; +And the very first man to land that sprung + Was himself, with eagerness burning. +"Now do nothing more," bold Ramund he said, + "All labour give o'er," said Ramund the young. + +To the Ball-house he sped, where the kempions play'd + At ball with glee and vigour; +But at his coming all stood adread, + At the sight of so fierce a figure. +"Pretty sport is this same," bold Ramund he said, + "I'll make one in the game," said Ramund the young. + +With fear and dismay upon his brow + From a window the Emperor gazes: +"O who is that man in the yard below + That makes such horrible faces?" +"'Tis I, and with glee," bold Ramund he said, + "I'll do battle with thee," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he struck on his sword amain, + The earth to its centre trembled; +The small birds swooned and fell on the plain, + On the bough that were singing assembled. +"Come down to me, knave," bold Ramund he said, + "Or by God I shall rave," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund he into the door now trode, + His face like a burning ember: +"Though iron and steel oppose my road + I'll penetrate to his chamber." +"Now be on thy guard," bold Ramund he said, + "I'm about to strike hard," said Ramund the young. + +On the door Ramund smote with an iron bar stout, + The castle was rent and parted; +'Neath that blow's power nod wall and tower, + From their place the windows started. +"You see I broke in," bold Ramund he said, + "Now at stake is thy skin," said Ramund the young. + +"Dear Ramund, dear Ramund, my life now spare, + And with benefits thee I'll cover; +I'll give thee my youngest daughter fair, + And the half of the land I rule over." +"Can take all any tide," bold Ramund he said, + "And thy daughter beside," said Ramund the young. + +Ramund then drew out Dymling his blade, + Of his valour the trusty assistant; +And he hewed at the Emperor so that his head + Flew fifteen furlongs distant. +"I thought 'twould not sever," bold Ramund he said, + "But the blood runs however," said Ramund the young. + + + + +ALF OF ODDERSKIER + + +Alf he dwells at Odderskier, + Is rich and bold withal; +Two stout and stalwart sons has he + Whom men do kempions call. + +Yes, two stout sons of mighty fame + Has Alf of Odderskier; +Of the king who dwells on Upsal fells + They love the daughter fair. + +It was youthful Helmer Kamp, + From stall his courser led; +"O I will hie me up the land + And the king's fair daughter wed." + +It was youthful Angelfyr + He sprang on his courser's back: +"And I will ride to Upsal too, + Though the earth beneath me crack." + +And when they entered the castle yard + They doffed their cloaks of skin; +Then straight they strode to the high, high hall, + To the monarch of Upsal in. + +In came youthful Helmer Kamp, + With grace and beauty rife: +"O King, thy daughter dear I love, + Wilt give her me for wife?" + +In came youthful Angelfyr, + His steely helmet shone: +"O King, give up thy daughter to me, + And straight from the land begone." + +Then answered soon the Upsal-King, + And a brave reply he gave: +"On my daughter I'll no husband force, + She'll choose whom she will have." + +"Now many thanks, dear father, that + Thou leav'st the choice to me; +I'll plight me to young Helmer Kamp, + He's like a man to see. + +"But I'll not have young Angelfyr, + He's an ugly Trold to view; +His father so is, his mother so is, + So are all his kindred too." + +Then answered the young Angelfyr, + So sorely wroth he grew: +"Come, brother, come to the court-yard down, + For her we will battle do." + +Then up and spake the Upsal King, + And the Upsal King did say: +"The swords are sharp, the swains are stark, + There'll be, I trow, good play." + +Alf he stands at Odderskier, + And he listens the mountains tow'rds; +Then must he hear so far, far off + The clash of his children's swords. + +And that heard Alf of Odderskier, + So far across the down: +"What have my sons now got in hand? + Why so wrathful are they grown?" + +He tarried then so short a space, + He sprang on his courser red; +And he arrived at Upsala + Before his sons lay dead. + +"Now tell me, youthful Helmer Kamp, + Tell me my dearest son, +Wherefore so free from thy flesh and bone + Those bloody rivers run?" + +Then answered the young Helmer Kamp, + As he writhed him round with pain; +This Angelfyr, my brother, has done + Since the maid he could not gain. + +I have full fifteen mortal wounds, + They are blent with poison all; +But if I had only one of them, + I dead full soon must fall." + +"Now list to me, young Angelfyr, + Beloved son of mine; +Say, wherefore trembles so the sword, + In that good hand of thine?" + +"Ask'st thou why trembles so the sword + In this right hand of mine? +Because I've eighteen mortal wounds, + And to hurt me they combine. + +"I have full eighteen mortal wounds, + And each so deadly sore;

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf. + + +Section 3.

The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: +http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + + +Section 5.
