Take harp, and greet this lovely. prime With some high strain of Kunic rhyme, Strong, deep, and powerful ! Peal it round Like that loud bell's sonorous sound.
Yet wild by fits, as when the lay Of bird and bugle hail the day.
Such was my grandsire Brick's sport.
When dawn gleam'd on his martial court.
Heymar the Scald, with harp's high sound, Summon'd the chiefs who slept around ; Couch'd on the spoils of wolf and bear, They roused like lions from their lair, Then rush'd in emulation forth To en...hance the glories of the north. — Proud Erick, mightiest of thy race.
Where is thy shadowy resting-place ?
In wild Valhalla hast thou quaff 'd From foeman's skull metheglin draught, Or wander'st where thy cairn was piled To frown o'er oceans wide and wild ?
Or have the milder Christians given Thy refuge in their peaceful heaven ?
Where'ier thou art, to thee are known Our toils endured, our trophies won.
Our wars, our wanderings, and our woes." He ceased, and Gunnar's song arose.
168 HABOLD THE DAUNTLESS.
