Original Text :	Saepeque Saxones immensa caede cadentes Audent obniti, ne sic moriantur inulti, Victoresque suos vario certamine temptant; Accipiunt redduntque ictus; mars saevit utrimque. Hic pedibus calcans sua viscera currit in hostem, Ille trahens proprio gelidum de corpore ferrum, Interfectorem moriens interficit hostem. Utraque sic odiis certabant agmina diris,
