The Poetic Edda: Translated from the Icelandic with an Introduction and Notes, 1923
Henry Adams Bellows · stanza 111
1923
It is time to chant from the chanter’s stool;By the wells of Urth I was,I saw and was silent, I saw and thought,And heard the speech of Hor.(Of runes heard I words, nor were counsels wanting,At the hall of Hor,In the hall of Hor;Such was the speech I heard.)
