Trouble

   One day as Wulf was about to go into Harold's castle, a man gave him a letter.  The letter was from Edith and it told him that the man who gave him the letter would take him back to her.  Wulf then hurried to get his horse and followed the man to the house that Edith was in.
   She greeted him and asked him how the king was doing.  He answered that he was doing well and he also told her the latest court news.  
   When he was finished, she told him to tell the king that she was doing well and that she missed him, but she would be fine knowing that he was doing his best for his country.
   When Wulf returned to the palace Osgod told him that the king had been wanting him.  Wulf hurried to the king and he told him about his visit with Edith.  Harold listened and then told him that he would talk with him more about it, but right then he had something that he needed to tell him.  It was that William of Normandy was getting a big army and coming to try and capture England.  Harold wanted Wulf to go and tell his brothers-in-law to get ready to fight, since William would first be going there.
  Wulf went to tell them, but when he told them they wouldn't listen to him and instead carried on hawking and hunting.
  About a fortnight later they heard that William and his men were getting closer, so then the men got together as many men as they could to fight William.
