    From "Beowulf" by Richard Wilbur (1948):

      He died in his own country a kinless king,
      A name heavy with deeds, and mourned as one
      Will mourn for the frozen year when it is done.
      They buried him next to the sea on a thrust of land:
      Twelve men rode round his barrow all in a ring,
      Singing of him what they could understand.
