Wulfric the Weapon Thane / A Story of the Danish Conquest of East Anglia

Charles W. Whistler Literature

“A word may be needed with regard to the sources from which this story of King Eadmund's armour bearer and weapon thane have been drawn. For the actual presence of such a close attendant on the king at his martyrdom on Nov. 20, 870 A.D. we have the authority of St. Dunstan, who had the story from the lips of the witness himself.”
