The Wife’s Lament [IN 8] I make this song about me full sadly my own wayfaring. I a woman tell what griefs I had since I grew up new or old never more than now. 5 Ever I know the dark of my exile. First my lord went out away from his people over the wave-tumult. I grieved each dawn wondered where my lord my first on earth might be. Then I went forth a friendless exile 10 to seek service in my sorrow’s need. My man’s kinsmen began to plot by darkened thought to divide us two so we most widely in the world’s kingdom lived wretchedly and I suffered longing.
