j FRITHIOF’S SAGA 136

frithiof

A woman’s worth in manly love is found.
ingeborg

He loves not long who doth not honor too.
frithiof

Inconstant stubbornness no honor wins.

ingeborg
A noble stubbornness is love of right.

frithiof

Yet yesterday it strove not with our love.
ingeborg

Nor doth to-day, but with our flight the more.

frithiof
It is necessity that calls us. Come.

ingeborg

Needful alone is what is right and noble.
frithiof

High mounts the sun, the time is fleeting by.

ingeborg
Ah me! it is gone by, gone by forever.
