BRÜNNHILDE [Trembling violently.
What man has done
This deed undaunted
That the boldest only dares?
SIEGFRIED [As before.
A hero who will tame
Thy pride by force at need.
BRÜNNHILDE
A monster stands
Upon yonder stone;
An eagle has come
To rend me in pieces!
Who art thou, frightful one?
Art thou a mortal,
Or dost thou hie
From Hella's dark host?
SIEGFRIED
[As before, beginning with a slightly tremulous voice, but continuing with more confidence.
A Gibichung am I,
And Gunther is his name
Whom thou must follow hence.
