You helped break up a fight between Getfleda's friends Brunstan and Sperling, but the troubles have not yet passed. Both boys are convinced that the other is to blame for the loss of Sperling's toy sword.
'Good ${CLASS}, what am I to do? Brunstan and Sperling will not speak with each other still and swear that their friendship is over...but you and I both know that neither is directly to blame.
'My other friend who misplaced the sword said that it was lost in the southern part of town...would you go and search there? If you can find the sword, perhaps Brunstan and Sperling will be friends again, and my other friend can remain nameless in the matter.'
Sperling's toy sword is likely somewhere in the southern part of Eaworth.
Getfleda asked you to find Sperling's toy sword so that Brunstan and Sperling can be friends again...and that her other friend can remain anonymous.
