Yet think again! but distantly art thou
Allied with Utgard-Lok, who reigns below:
Naught with that chief in common dost thou share;
He, frightful to behold; thou, wondrous fair.
Like rose-bud thou, t’embalm the air design’d;
Like deadly nightshade he, to blast mankind.
Yet oft the virtues of a child suffice
To expiate her father’s crimes and vice:
From unlike sources various products spring;
Joy sometimes grief; misfortune bliss doth bring.
