The solution is placed as chapter 2 if you need to look for it…. And I was nice and wrote it in English not Old English. For the record, it sounds better with the –ed endings pronounced. This suddenly came to me as sleep was taking me so I had to wake up and write it down...

Like Grendel's arm maimed
Falls limp by weapon claimed
Though fight is embraced gladly
So courtship shall end sadly
