Hast stolen the strength.
How hast thou betrayed me, against me how sinned!
Oh, let me go!
Else drag me down to death and dishonor,
Be quick, make an end!
Life for me is over,
Before ’t is begun.”
“Goest thou, Ingigerd, then dies out forever
The light from my life.”
“Mine died out when this night was kindled
Fire in our home.
What thou bearest is but the ashes,
Strew them abroad
Over thy path like a corpse-gray carpet….
May it adorn
And deck with glory
Thy chieftain track.”
Amidst the noise and laughter about him
Lifted he her
Free from his arms and gently set her
Down at his feet.
Spoke not a word, but set his gaze only
Where yonder she passed,
Wending back toward the fire-scarred farmstead,
The mountain-side down.
And still he stood there
When she had vanished.
