Now little Roska ’gan to cower,

And closely grasp’d the hand of Thor.

Through many a winding gall’ry past,

They stumble on, or creep, or glide,

Until a flick’ring flame at last

Serves their ambiguous path to guide.

At length an opening towards the north

They find, and ’gainst it struggle forth;

To where the roof describes an arch,

And forms a vestibule, they march;
