of Frethorik and Wiliow.\u00b9<br \/>My name is Frethorik surnamed oera Linda, that is to say, over the Lindens.<br \/>At Liudwardia am I chosen to be Asga.<\/p><p>Liudwardia is a new thorp within the ramparts of the burgh Liudgarda, whence the name is come into disrepute.<br \/>In my time has much happened.\u2075<br \/>Much had I written thereabout, but afterwards are also many things told to me.<br \/>From one and another will I write a story after this book, to honour the good people and dishonour the evil.<\/p><p>In my youth heard I complaints all about, a bad time came, a bad time was come.<br \/>Frya had forsaken us, her watch maids had she held back, for godlike images were found within our borders.<br \/>I burned with curiosity to see the images.\u00b9\u2070<\/p><p>In our neighbourhood hobbled an old maid, in and out of the houses, always talking about bad times.<br \/>I turned along side of her.<br \/>She stroked my chin.<br \/>Now I became bold and asked her if she would once show me the bad time and the images.<br \/>She laughed good-naturedly and brought me upon the burgh.\u00b9\u2075<br \/>An old man asked me if I could read and write.<br \/>No, said I.<br \/>Then must you first go and learn said he, otherwise may it not be shown to you.<br \/>Daily went I to the scribe to learn.<\/p><p>Eight years later, I heard that our burghmaid had committed whoredom and some burghers had committed treason with the Magy and many people were on their side.\u00b2\u2070<\/p><p>Strife came everywhere.<br \/>There were children who revolted against their elders.<br \/>In secret were the upstanding people murdered.<br \/>The old maid who had exposed everything was found dead in a ditch.<br \/>My dad, who was a judge, would have wrack for (avenge) her.\u00b2\u2075<br \/>At night was he murdered in his house.<\/p><p>Three years later was the Magy boss without dispute.<br \/>The Saxons remained pious and upstanding.<br \/>To them fled all good people.<br \/>My mom died over it.\u00b3\u2070<\/p><p>Now did I as the others.<br \/>The Magy exalted in his wickedness.<br \/>But earth should show him, that she might let no Magy nor idols at the holy womb whence she bore Frya.<br \/>Even as the wild horse shakes his mane after he has thrown his rider in the grass, just so shook earth her forests and mountains.<br \/>Streams spread over the fields.\u00b3\u2075<\/p><p>The sea seethed.<br \/>Mountains spewed toward the clouds, and what they spewed, the clouds flung back upon the earth.<br \/>By the onset of the Harvestmounth, slanted earth northwards, she sank down, lower and lower.<br \/>On the Wolfmonth (wintermonth) lay the low marks (Denmarks) of Frya&#8217;s land buried under the sea. The forest which the images were in, were heaved up and played in the winds.\u2074\u2070<\/p><p>The year after, came frost in the Waningmonth and old Frya&#8217;s land lay hidden under a white (snow blanket).<br \/>In Woodgatheringmonth came storms winds out of the North, with moving mountains of ice and stones.<br \/>When spring came, earth heaved herself up.<br \/>Ice melted in two.<br \/>The ebb came and the forests with the images drifted into the sea.\u2074\u2075<\/p><p>In Joy or Lovemonth, everyone went sailing home again who dared.<br \/>I came with a maid to the burgh Liudgaarde.<br \/>How sad it looked.<br \/>The woods of the Lindaoorden were mostly gone.<br \/>That which has been Liudgaarde was sea.\u2075\u2070<\/p><p>The breakers lashed the dike.<br \/>Ice had taken the tower away and the houses lay in through each other.<br \/>On the slope of the dike found I a stone.<br \/>Our scribe had written his name in it, that was a beacon to me.<br \/>As it was gone with our burgh, was it gone with others, in the highlands were they through earth, in the lowlands were they through water fordone.\u2075\u2075<\/p><p>Only Fryasburgh at Texland was left unharmed.<br \/>But all the land which had lain northwards, was under sea.<br \/>Yet is it not brought up.<br \/>On this shore of the Flymeer, so it is told, were thirty salt marshes come to be, arising from the forests which were driven out with ground and all.<br \/>At Westflyland, fifty.\u2076\u2070<\/p><p>The canal which had run through the land, athwart to the Alderga, was silted up and ruined.<br \/>The seamen and other sailing folk, who were at home, had saved themselves with kin and sibs aboard their ships.<\/p><p>But the black folk from Lydasburgh and Alikmarum had done likewise.<br \/>While the black folk drove southward, had they saved many maidens, and after no one came to ask for them, they kept them to be their wives.<\/p><p>The people who came back, went all within the dike of the burgh to dwell, because it was all broken and mired without.<br \/>The old houses were tumbled together.<\/p><p>From the highlanders bought one kine and sheep, and in the great houses where foremerly the maids had sat, is now clothing and felt made for a living.<br \/>That happened 1888 years after Atland was suken.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider
