The story goes that the Vikings cut off Edmund's head and hid it in the woods. His people went looking for the head, calling out, "Where are you, friend?" And the head answered, "Here, here, here!" "'Hwær eart þu nu gefera?' And him andwyrde þæt heafod, 'Her, her, her.'" See the HERs washed in red!
