THE BATTLE OF STIKLESTAD

Blindly groping,
Wild confusion
Everywhere.

As his thoughts were,
So his speech was,
‘Terrified was he

By all about.

The gods themselves,

The gods were the combatants,

Christus and Ymir,

The Lamb and Fenris,
The sun and the dragon,
Loki and Satan,

All in the reek of

The flames of Nastrond.
The raving

Wrought them up to
Berserk fury ;

Once more rushed they
Back to the field.

Ended the world now,
They with it,

Then would they slaughter

Ere themselves were slaughtered,

All now should perish,
Even remembrance.

Charged them the King’s men,
Few ’gainst the many,
