To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" " So be it ! " cried the young men, " There needs nor doubt nor parle " ; But, knitting hard his red brows, In silence stood the Jarl.
A sound of woman s weeping At the temple door was heard ; But the old men bowed their white heads, And answered not a word.
Then the Dream-wife of Thingvalla, A Vala young and fair, Sang softly, stirring with her breath The veil of her loose hair.
THE DOLE OF JARL THORKELL. 53 She sang : " The winds from Alf heim Bring never sound of strife ; The gifts for Fre...y the meetest Are not of death, but life.
" He loves the grass-green meadows, The grazing kine s sweet breath ; He loathes your bloody Horg-stones, Your gifts that smell of death.
" No wrong by wrong is righted, No pain is cured by pain ; The blood that smokes from Doom-rings Falls back in redder rain.
" The gods are what you make them, As earth shall Asgard prove ; And hate will come of hating, And love will come of love.
54 THE DOLE OF JARL THORKELL.
" Make dole of skyr and black bread That old and young may live ; And look to Frey for favor When first like Frey you give.
