  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    Heimdall he was, the dullest11 of all the Æsir, and yet bad to you.”
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    “He was Balder among the Æsir, whom all the gods mourned, and not like you.”
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    was Balder among the Æsir, whom all the gods mourned, and not like you.
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    Be silent, you sluggard!
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    The powerful one dies proudly—
    the prince chose this fall.
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    The piglets would protest loudly
    if the boar’s plight they knew.
    Death has been dealt to me,
    snakes dig in my flesh-house
    and savagely stab me,
    serpents suck my life out.
    beside the beasts I’ll die now,
    soon I will be a corpse.
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    I have fought ‘gainst foes in
    fifty-one battles in all,
    which seemed a splendid feat,
    I did scathe to many men;
    I never imagined a snake
    for the ending of my life;
    many things may happen
    which men themselves expect least.
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    “The piglets would grunt now, if they knew what the old pig suffers.”
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    Stitched and seamed nowhere,
    this long shirt I give you;
    out of hoar-grey hair-strands,
    with a high heart, I wove it.
    No wound will be bloody,
    nor will weapons bite you
    if you have this hallowed tunic,
    made holy by the gods.
  • Лиля Камышhas quoted5 years ago
    What does the ring-breaker hear
    come from the rocks howling,
    that the flinger of hand-fire
    must forsake his fleet sea-serpents?
    Yet I, who freely scatter
    all the forearm’s layings,
    shall bear with this plan bravely,
    brooch-Bil, if the gods will.
