Rather intriguing, having read what is written I am now rather keen to see the full text, are you sure you have the wording right ? I've looked at various sites but can't get an exact match up with what you've written just a partial or different expression.

It comes across more as a passage from a legend or fantasy epic along the lines of Beowulf, or from the pen of authors such as Tolkien or Homer.

I look forward to someone supplying an answer.
