The tidings were brought 138 Frithjof us last night by a swift messenger. Now Halfdan sits alone on Bele's throne. Of- fer him thy hand, sacrifice to the gods thy wrath : this sacrifice Balder and I, his priest, demand of thee, in token that thou dost seek reconciliation in all singleness of heart. If thou canst not do this, then is all thy penitence a mockery, then had the temple better been left unbuilt, and all my words are wasted breath. " Here Halfdan stepped across the brass threshold and..., with a timid look which well became his boyish beauty, stood on one side, apart from the dread Sea-King, silent and expectant. Slowly Frithjof loosed from his belt the sword, the dag- ger too, and laid them on the altar; his gold-rimmed shield he leaned against it, then, unarmed, approached his boyhood's friend, so untowardly turned into a foe. " In this our feud, " he said in gentle accents, " he who first holds out his hand for peace is the winner. " King Halfdan, flushing with joy, un- gloved his hand and laid it in that other hand, and the two, long-parted, joined in Reconciliation 139 a new-made bond, as strong and firm as their native rocks.
