en-wikipedia-org-1695		The Battle of Maldon - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	2692	226	72	Individual episodes from the ensuing carnage are described, and the fates of several Anglo-Saxon warriors depicted – notably that of Byrhtnoth himself, who dies urging his soldiers forward and commending his soul to God. Not all the English are portrayed as heroic however: one, Godric the son of Odda (there are two Godrics in the poem), flees the battle with his brothers and, most improperly, does so on Byrhtnoth's horse. Importantly, Clarke ends the novel with her own, powerful Modern English translation of the Anglo-Saxon poem, The Battle of Maldon. "The Battle of Maldon" is edited, annotated and linked to digital images of its manuscript transcription and original printing, with modern translation, in the Old English Poetry in Facsimile Project: https://uw.digitalmappa.org/58	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-1695.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-1695.txt
