1.
Bite Of The Apple Of Idunn

A deadly curse began to flit upon the clans,
and the clansmen with such a swift wrath.
It came from beyond the dales and the thorps,
making the striplings grow hoary and old.

the shoal of knorrs of wayfarers in the sea.
The stillness of the waters was to be wrested,
by the winds that aroused the ships that rove.

To Laud The Hymns Of Praise

Sinuate leaves are all around,
and blossoming flowers found.
Moisten soil from the ground,
dewdrops come falling down.

but yet amid our sullenness we find such lull.
There within the dark corners of our platitude,
