Old English poem "The Battle of Maldon": "and ne forhtedon ná", *and be not

"The engraving of the seven soldiers is a copy of the engraving of another
tombstone - possibly the tombstone erected in the IX century in the
monastery of Lindisfarne, in the north of England, which commemorates the
viking attack suffered by the monastery in the year 793 and that Borges
related to 'La balada de Maldon'."
