' "More awful grew his visage as he spake the word of dread, And no more durst I behold him, but with heart a-cold I fled; I fled from the glorious house my hands had made so fair, As poor as the new-born baby with nought of raiment or gear: I fled from the heaps of gold, and my goods were the eager will, And the heart that remembereth all, and the hand that may never be still.
"Then unto this land I came, and that was long ago. As men-folk count the years; and I taught them to reap and to ...sow, * * * * * "And I grew the master of masters--Think thou how strange it is That the sword in the hands of a stripling shall one day end all this!
"Yet oft mid all my wisdom did I long for my brother's part, And Fafnir's mighty kingship weighed heavy on my heart When the Kings of the earthly kingdoms would give me golden gifts From out of their scanty treasures, due pay for my cunning shifts. And once--didst thou number the years thou wouldst think it long ago-- I wandered away to the country from whence our stem did grow.
