She dwells in Ocean’s deepest cave: seldom to Valhall came:

With pain in their bright choir enroll’d the Asar view’d her name.

With th’ Asa who sat next to her she form’d a contrast wide;

They seem’d the images of love and hatred side by side:

Twas Balder, who with youthful bloom all renovated shone:

The Disar all cast looks of love on Odin’s fair-hair’d son.

His light gold tresses, parted, gleam’d over his forehead bright;

His brows resembled just the flower “the brows of Balder” hight:

His aspect’s majesty divine no language can impart;

Where’er he turn’d his eyes, their glance went deep into the heart.
