Wretched is the greeting between us: ashwood spears,
Poor is the greeting between us, mutual blame
and blows on a day of battle, and spear-thrusts.
And a day of calamity and stabbing.

They stretched out to me fingers planted
They extended to me fingers dipped
in baseness; no rein has ever sweated for them.
In villainy, with no restraint upon them.
