“And am I then a spirit?” Ragnar said,“And did I hear that oft repeated cry?
Thrice happy thus, if numbered with the dead,
I may behold, with an unclouded eye,
That beauteous spirit ever hovering nigh.”
Farewell ye smiling scenes; thou pictured earth;
My faithful warriors; region of my birth;—
All, all that once was dear I could forego,
If to be near her were my happy lot:
Come pain, or pleasure, happiness or woe,
Her presence is my bliss,—it matters not.”
He said, and gazing once again around,
117
That glorious, and transcendent light,
And once again his ear drank in that liquid sound.
