Offa weold Ongle
Offa weold Ongle,
Alewih Denum;
se wæs þara manna
modgast ealra,
no hwæþre he ofer Offan
eorlscype fremede,
ac Offa geslog
ærest monna,
cnihtwesende,
cynerica mæst.
Offa ruled the Angles,
Alewih the Danes;
he was among all men;
the bravest,
but was not braver than Offa,
because the noble
Offa conquered,
before he was a man,
in battle
most of his kingdom.
Widsith, 35-39
