Askeladd crosses the river and escapes from Thorkell into Wales with Canute. However, Askeladd’s men are ambushed by a group of soldiers hiding behind the boulders at the border of the kingdom of Brycheiniog. Askeladd attempts to negotiate with their messenger, and reveals his plan.
I heard Asser captured them!
!سمعتُ أنّ السّيّد آسر أمسك بالكثير منهم
Herr Asser hat sie gefangen genommen.
¡Oí que Asser los capturó!
¡He oído que Asser los capturó!
Il paraît que messire Asser
les a capturés !
Ouvi dizer que Asser os capturou!
