Then spake the Master of Masters: “We have come to the garth and the gate:
There is youth and rest behind thee and many a thing to do,

103

There is many a fond desire, and each day born anew;
And the land of the Volsungs to conquer, and many a people's praise:
And for me there is rest it may be, and the peaceful end of days.
We have come to the garth and the gate; to the hall-door now shall we win,
Shall we go to look on the high-seat and see what sitteth therein?”
