And the mighty past | they call to mind,

And the ancient runes | of the Ruler of Gods.

[61]. In wondrous beauty | once again

Shall the golden tables | stand mid the grass,

Which the gods had owned | in the days of old,

. . . . . . . . | . . . . . . . .

[62]. Then fields unsowed | bear ripened fruit,

All ills grow better, | and Baldr comes back;

Baldr and Hoth dwell | in Hropt’s battle-hall,

And the mighty gods: | would you know yet more?
