你将留下来帮助保卫我们的洞穴免受所有来者的侵害,保护那些比你弱小的人并遵守我们的准则。永远用这把剑代表善良和正义,永远不要做你会感到羞耻的事情,永远不要让你的心支配你的思想……并且永远不要让另一个生物从你手中夺走这把剑,只要你还活着。到时候,把它传给另一个人,也许是你自己的儿子。你本能地就会知道他是否是一名战士。如果没有,请将剑藏在只有勇敢的真正战士才敢去寻找的地方。向我发誓,马丁。
(You will stay and help defend our cave against all comers, protect those weaker than yourself and honor our code. Always use the sword to stand for good and right, never do a thing you would be ashamed of, and never let your heart rule your mind ... And never let another creature take this sword from you, not as long as you live. When the time comes, pass it on to another, maybe your own son. You will know instinctively if he is a warrior. If not, hide the sword where only a true warrior who is brave of heart would dare to go and find it. Swear this to me, Martin.)
