POEMS AND SONGS

The wind sends hither
The snarling sea~hounds.

— What flaming thunder
From thousand voices!
Steel-weapons redden
With stains of warfare!

The shields are clashing!
See, sand-clouds rising,
Speer-billows rolling
Round Tambarskelve!

Hard is his fortune! —
Oh, faithless Harald:

Death’s ravens roving

Ride o’er thy ting-peace!

Fetch forth the wagon,
Drive to the fighting!

At home to cower

Would cost my life now,

(On the way)
O yeomen, yield not,
Circle and save him!

Eindride, aid now
Thine aged father!

Build a shield-bulwark
For him bow-bending!
