Henry Adams Bellows · stanza 95
1923The head alone knows what dwells near the heart,A man knows his mind alone;No sickness is worse to one who is wiseThan to lack the longed-for joy.The Poetic Edda: Translated from the Icelandic with an Introduction and Notes, 1923
The head alone knows what dwells near the heart,A man knows his mind alone;No sickness is worse to one who is wiseThan to lack the longed-for joy.
