,. Insomuch that when the follower,
Of Jcph asked the King that he shonl'
rive them he head of Edwin the prigH'
whose high place was filled by llysse'
the Warrior, he would fain have gwen
them what they desired.
3. And he sent Thomas the Aged t'
bchead Edwin, and deliver his body unit
his enemies but. when Edwin knew that
the destrovcrs were without. he shut to
the door of his house, neither went h
ont TO his destruction, but watched night
md day lest his enemies find him sleep
ing.
4. And Ulysses the Warrior was ms

! that Edwin would not be beheadcd, meth
or allowed himself to be offered II sacriiic,
| to his enemies, he was exceeding wr"th
so that he swore q great oath not to resi-
until he had done some terrible thing.
6. And he rested not, but hardened
day and night unto the eounsels OF Tho
ungodly, and unto the promises OF Drmi-
Gratis and Finuegan,
! T. Promising that they would come.
even as the waves come, by tens and hy
hundreds and by thousands, with spear
and with swords, and with all the engine
of war, and put to rout Ulysses and all
| his host which were the friends OF Edwin
the Upright.

courage of the beef-eatcrs,--a wordy eour

Golden City on the West, the voice WA
as the voice of one man.
