she knew that others would come in
his stead. She unclaimed her faithful
shepherd dog and began to knit She
was sitting with her face turned to-
ward the home of Thorne, but the mist
began to rise SO that she could not
even distinguish the tree tops. She
moved over to the other side. and
there she sat dreaming for long time
with her eyes riveted on the vast sea-
The view filed her soul with unspeak-
able peace.
Suddenly she felt a desire to give
vent to her feelings in loud melody.
She sang the songs of childhood, the
ditties of the village. the Morse nation
al song, and her music sounded weird
in the silent night Then she thought
that some one was answering her.
What in the world can this be?"
she asked herself. 1T cannot be the
echo, for l am facing the sea-
She advanced to the edge of the rock
and swinging her arms around a slen-
der tree she searched the wall of the
steep mountain. But it was quiet and
peaceful on the ford; not a bird flew
over it.
and again began to sing. This time
she could not be mistaken, for it was
indeed a human voice that responded
to her yodel.
Again she rushed to the tree and
took a long look down the Aim. At
last she beheld a boat moored to a
small branch that jotted out from the
rock Only some fifty feet below her,
she saw a red cap, with a man under
it making its way up the slippery
side when not even a mountain goat
would dare to tread
She hurried back to her place, and
dared not utter note or word for fear
that the intrepid wooer would be hurl-
ed down into the turbulent waters OF
the ford. She knew very well who
it was, though she did not see his
face. She threw herself on the ground
and held the long, heavy blades of
grass with both hands. as if it were
her task not to lose her grip on what
was once seized. But the grass roots
began to loosen and in her despair she
cried to God to aid Thore with His
Omnipotence- Then again she began
to think that such an act of Thore and
such a prayer on her part were gross
temptation of God Nevertheless she
continued her supplications. only
this time, dear Father in heaven, only
this time" she cried.
Then Aslaug slung her arms around
the dog as if it was Thore whom she
was trying to save from destruction
How long the time seemed At last
the dog tore himself loose and began
to bark Justify.

again and again. and Thore could not
