XV.
Here he saw a palace stand,Far brighter than the sun;
Covered with the purest gold
That blazed in many a glorious sold
In Gimli's happy land.
The Gods and ancient heroes meet;—
This is the seat, the very fount of bliss.
The virtuous here shall dwell,
And bathe their souls in joy;
And, robed in immortality,
Forever sing
The praise of Thor and Odin;
148
From painful apprehension free,
And joy to all eternity
Shall clothe them like a robe.
And ever they
Through one eternal day
Shall drink fresh pleasure in;—
This is the seat, the very fount of bliss.
