The Sea-King | ||
XIX.
The warriors of that lovely landAre from the scene of warfare gone,
152
One man is left,—and only one!
They lead him on to bear the storm
Of their dire vengeance, all alone;
And Ragnar in that bleeding form,
Beholds no stranger's,—'tis his own!
He turned a keen enquiring eye
Upon that aged man
Who still beside him stood;
Yet nought was said, till with a sigh
Orvar the old began;—
“Yes thou art right, yon is thy bleeding form,
And those who wallow in their blood,
Thy poor, misguided band.
Ragnar hear the voice of warning,
Hear, and be not madly bold,—
Shun that strong, that dangerous land,
Few that harm her ever prosper;
Hear my counsel, profit by it,
Hear me Ragnar,—I am old!—
