Lim-strang w?s geboren
Bearn leod-cyninga
Magorinc Mearces.
Bunden in byrde to laedenne
Bunden in lufe to ?egnunge
Lang beadugear cy?a?
Lic onginne? bugan.
Swift deadlic gear Stieppa? geond willan.
Ac eagan giet locia? Beorhtre gesih?e;
Heorte giet beate?.
'Strong-limbed he was born
This son of Kings;
This warrior of Rohan.
Bound by birth to lead.
Bound by love to serve.
Long years of war begin to show.
The body has begun to bend.
Swift mortal years outpace the will.
But the eyes still watch clear-sighted.
The great heart is beating still.'
