I didn't see you.

#2 #3

They marched sooner than we expected

#4

so miserable?

#5 #6 #7 #8

Now, I have other, more important, matters to attend.

#9

to pray for strength and to expunge

#10 #11 #12

My conscience.

#13

It is about what I must do.

This horse belongs me now.

#16 #17 #18

Young Odda, have you offered your apologies to Uhtred?

#19

which he does not. That is how I think.

#20

You've said yourself I gave you victory at the hill.

#21 #22

We should go.

#23 #24

But he beat you, Guthrum.

#25 #26

Bless him with courage, strength, and wisdom.

#27

Vivat Rex alfredus.

#28 #29

You have little food,

#30

Is that your wish, earl Guthrum, to lose men?

#31

These are the terms. And you, Alfred,

#33

are but men.

#34

They are not defeated.

#35

And to serve God, his word must travel.

#36

and you expect him to teach me how to fight?

by the land, by Wessex itself.

#46 #47

I knew it.

#48

Never.
