II.
Long time the Sea-King tranced lay,Till starting up as from a rapturous dream,
“And she, alas! hath fled,”
Ragnar bewildered said;
“And with that strange unearthly scream,
Swift as the sun's departing beam
Hath vanished away.”
And, as he spake he gazed around,
And on his wondering sight,
Burst a bright flood of light;
And on his ear there broke a tide of mingled sound.
