He has been laid in his barrow

Swá hit gedéfe bið þæt mon his winedryhten wordum herge
ferhðum fréoge þonne hé forð scile of líchaman laéded weorðan
swá begnornodon Géata léode hláfordes hryre, heorðgenéatas:
cwaédon þæt hé waére wyruldcyning manna mildust ond monðwaérust
léodum líðost ond lofgeornost.
