Here is where I despaired and stopped.
Bold Battle-children /, Dragon-friends, Shield-gnawers, Stout linden trees, wide spread
Standing tall in elf-glory, or feather’s fall, through Thor’s laughter, and Northern kiss.
You will not know not bed-shame, or straw death
but fiercely find the Rainbow Bridge by spear-din and sword-sleep.
For Ragnvaldr comes to take what is his, And raises up royal Arabella at his side
Dragon Dynast, Kingdom commander, welcoming warriors of Mighty MidRealm;
Gold-friends all, the whale road leads East! to AEthelmark!
Where, laughing, all assemble at the place of Pennsic, that Vale of Valhol, and we will call out
DRACO (invictus)

So claims Ragnvaldr lengthy lineage…
And MidRealm Throne.
