NIELS EBBESEN AND GERMAND GLADENSWAYNE
TWO BALLADS
BY GEORGE BORROW
LONDON: PRINTED FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION 1913
NIELS EBBESEN.
All his men the Count collects, And from Slesvig marched away; Never such as host was seen Or before or since that day.
Into Denmark marched the Count, Followed by so fair a band; Banners twenty-four they bore, Power like theirs might none withstand.
Gert the Count to Randers rode, To bad counsel lending ear; For from old it stood foretold, He should end there his career.
He would not the place avoid, But seemed bent to tempt his fate; Of the rural lords and thanes He the quarters up will beat.
Knights and freeborn men apart, There trooped eighteen thousand bows; Forty thousand made they all, Who could such a host oppose?
