Never on earth did any man see more.

Gainst us their shields an hundred thousand bore, That laced helms and shining hauberks wore;And, bolt upright, their bright brown spearheads shone.

Lords of the Franks, God keep you in valour!

So hold your ground, we be not overborne!"Then say the Franks "Shame take him that goes off:

If we must die, then perish one and all."AOI.
