Thorfinn begins his duel against Askeladd with Canute and Thorkell as witnesses. However, Thorfinn is unable to strike as he stands overwhelmed by the extraordinary mood that overtakes Askeladd after Bjorn’s departure. Having noticed Thorfinn’s hesitation, Askeladd lays down his sword and provokes Thorfinn into an unarmed fight, which incites Thorfinn’s fury.
The hero is still there now, healing his battle wounds.
ويُقال أنّ البطل موجود هناك
.حتّى الآن يُشفى من جراحه
Dort heilt der Held noch heute
die Wunden aus seinen Schlachten.
El héroe aún está allí ahora,
sanando sus heridas de combate.
El héroe aún sigue allí,
sanando sus heridas de batalla.
La légende dit qu’aujourd’hui encore,
Artorius panse ses blessures là-bas.
O herói ainda está lá, curando
seus ferimentos de batalha.
