Then into the hall of the Niblungs go the battle-staying earls, And they cast the spoil in the midmost; the webs of the out-sea pearls, And the gold-enwoven purple that on hated kings was bright; Fair jewelled swords accursèd that never flashed in fight; Crowns of old kings of battle that dastards dared to wear; Great golden shields dishonoured, and the traitors' battle-gear; Chains of the evil judges, and the false accusers' rings, And the cloud-wrought silken raiment of the cruel whores of kings.
