Svipdagsmol

With the words of Urth  shall no man war, Though unearned her gifts be given."
  Mengloth spake:64. "Welcome thou art,  for long have I waited; The welcoming kiss shalt thou win!For two who love  is the longed-for meeting The greatest gladness of all.
65.[1] "Long have I sat  on Lyfjaberg here, Awaiting thee day by day;And now I have  what I ever hoped, For here thou art come to my hall.
66. "Alike we yearned;  I longed for thee, And thou for my love hast longed;But now henceforth  together we know Our lives to the end we shall live."
  1. ↑ Lyfjaberg cf. stanza 52 and note.
