Post hunc Dan regnum capessit. Qui cum duodecimum aetatis annum ageret, legationum petulantia fatigatur, Saxonibus bellum aut tributum afferre iussus. Sed rubor pugnam pensioni anteposuit, potius ad strenue moriendum quam timide vivendum impellens. Itaque praelata pugnandi sorte, Danorum iuventus Albyam fluvium tanta navigiorum frequentia complevit, ut facilem eius transitum perinde ac continuo ponte iuncta puppium tabulata praestarent. Quo evenit, ut Saxoniae rex eidem quam a Danis exigebat condicioni adigeretur.
After him DAN came to the throne. When he was in the twelfth year of his age, he was wearied by the insolence of the embassies, which commanded him either to fight the Saxons or to pay them tribute. Ashamed, he preferred fighting to payment and was moved to die stoutly rather than live a coward. So he elected to fight; and the warriors of the Danes filled the Elbe with such a throng of vessels, that the decks of the ships lashed together made it quite easy to cross, as though along a continuous bridge. The end was that the King of Saxony had to accept the very terms he was demanding from the Danes.
