Whither did the horse come? Whither did the man come? Whither did the treasure-giver come? Whither did the seats of feasts come? Where are the hall-joys? Alack and alas, bright cup! Alack and alas, mailed warrior! Alack and alas, the army of the king! How did the time pass, grow dark under the cover of night, as if it never did.
