Iceland, BRUNHILDA'S castle. Early morning.
SCENE I
Enter BRUNHILDA and FRIGGA from opposite sides.
BRUNHILDA.
From whence so early? Dewy is thy hair
And blood-stained are thy garments.
FRIGGA.
I have made
A sacrifice unto the ancient gods,
Before the moon was gone.
BRUNHILDA.
The ancient gods!
The cross rules now, and Thor and Odin dwell
As devils in deep hell.
