Monað modes lust mid mereflode foroð to feran, þaet ic feor heonan ofer hean holmas, ofer hwæles eðel elþeodigra eard gesece.

Nís me to hearpan, hyge ne to hringþege, ne to wif wyn ne to worulde hyht ne ymb owith elles nefne ymb yða gevealc.

"The desire of my spirit urges me to journey forth over the flowing sea that far hence across the hills of water & the whales country I may seek the land of strangers.

No mind have I for harp nor gift of ring nor delight in women nor joy in the world nor concern with aught else save the rolling of the waves".
