Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Battle of Maldon and Short Poems From the Saxon Chronicle: Edited With Introduction, Notes and Glossary
This ?owery passage unfortunately does not add to what we learn from the Chronicle, but such as it is, we have in it a nearly contemporary and therefore valuable confirmation of the latter. Of course it is possible that the writer may have been acquainted with the poem, though he makes no mention of it.
