But he had gone down the river.

"We will leave this pallid man, then,

Tokens that we've held our feast here!"

Soon some lighted brands were flying

In the hut of Fridolinus;

And they sprang rejoicing through the

Flames in singing, "Praised be Woden!"

From the distance gazed with pleasure

The old grandam, and her face shone

Ghastly in the lurid light.
