He shook the skins that bound him tight he took a bundle from his back and dropped it sure upon the stone and pulled them crusted from his bones as he piled the pieces high gold from countries of rumor gloried by the heads of Rome and some faces were unknown but they glittered as the same he placed them on the table safe next to his broadsword... There was twine about his feet that held the fur and he brought meat freshly killed from whence he came dripping blood from off his back he offered up his bonding fee nodding, "put this prompt upon the spit" weary of the kill. |
