altar. when suddenly the most holy
god Baldur appeared before me, shin

'swanvita, let not Ingvar. thy lord, de-
part from the palace this day, for the
shadow Of death hangs over thee and
thy little ones Then he disappeared,
and awoke trembling. Oh. my hus-
band, go not forth and leave me!'
And so great was her terror and so
pitiful her pleadings that Ingvar con-
sented to her words and stayed within
the palace walls. nor went forth all day
long. But Gerrod and Fenrir, when
they saw that Ingvar tarried in his
hall, remained in their hiding place to

The next night Swanvita, the queen.
slept and dreamed again that the fair
god Baldur appeared and warned her
In the same words as before. And in
the early morning she spoke to Ingvar
and said:
"oh. good my lord. I pray thee leave
me not to-day, for fear to stay with
in the palace with my little ones when
thou art gone."
Then the king laughed at her fears

swanvita raised her hands to the fair

not abide with me this day" Then
Baldur leaned down and laid something
upon the altar. and straightway he
disappeared. and swanvita awoke,
trembling, and found beside her on the
bed pencil Of stone, white and shin

the king and told him all. beseeching
him, for the sake Of his children, that

wise. stretching out his hands, could
not go beyond the circle Of light. for the
power Of the great god Baldur was
within the circle, and no evil thing
could enter into its midst. And Swan
vita raised the golden horn and blew
with all her strength. and the sound
echoed over the great ford and over
the forest and the mountain. and came
to the ears Of Ingvar the King, and
straightway he turned and hastened
with all speed back to his palace. ;
Now when Gerrod and Fenrir found
that they could in nowise come near to
swanvita and her children within the
holy circle, they were wild with anger
and Gerrod. in his rage. tore up great
trees by the roots and flung them into
the sea, and ran to the three affairs and
began to destroy them. First he cast
down the altar Of Niord. then he over
turned the altar Of Heimdall, but when
he came to the altar Of Baldur, so great
was his fury that he clasped his arms
around 1t and pulled it over toward
himself. and the two great pillars Of the
altar fell upon his feet and crushed
them so that he tumbled to the earth
with terrible noise and lay there with
his feet pinned to the earth under the
heavy stones.
Then cried Fenrir the Wolf, "Ah,
Gerrod. fate is against thee. The great
god Baldur is wiser than thou! Fare.
well; shall not wait here until Ingvar
the King cometh," and with a mocking
laugh he trotted away.
Come back! Oh, noble Fenrir, do not
leave me thus!" screamed Gerrod Then
as the wolf needed him not, but disap.

whole ford resounded with his cries,
but Fenrir went on without stopping,
back to the Iron Wood.
Soon came Ingvar the King with ali

wicked, as indeed most giants are.
At last he arose and went over hill
and dale till he came to the Iron Wood.
Now the Iron Wood was dark and
dreadful. for it was the abode Of count
less evil creatures. And Gerrod went
into the terrible forest and called so
loudly that his voice echoed from one
end Of 1t to the other, and he said:
Creatures Of night, hear me! Who
will help me to revenge myself upon
Ingvar. the just king. who rules be-
yond the ninth fjord?"
And there was hush in the black
wood. And in the silence Gerrod heard
the soft pit-a-pat of footsteps on the
dry leaves. and a moment later shag-
gy wolf Of tremendous size came
through the trees.
"Who is 1t cries for revenge?" said
the wolf. "Fenrirswill be thy helper,
Gerrod. son of Gringel."
Then give me first thy COUNSEL" said
Gerrod. And he told Fenrir all. and
asked him what II were best to do to
have revenge upon Ingvar.
And Fenrir the Wolf spoke and said
Listen! Tomorrow King Ingvar
goes forth to the Hill of Clouds to make
a treaty with the seven kings of the
seven rivers, and with him 60 his
strong warriors. In his wide palace
shall remain swanvita. his beautiful
wife. with Alfing, his son, and Ava. his
little daughter, and many women serv.
ants. When Ingvar the King is gone
we shall break into the palace and de-
stroy them all; thus shall we have ven-
geance upon the strong king"
'Thou sayest well!' said Gerrod.
"Let us set out at once" so Gerrod
and the great wolf made their way
back through the Iron Wood, and rest
ed not until they had crossed the ninth
ford and saw the palace Of Ingvar
on the edge of the strand, and before
1t standing three altars of stone. And
by this time dark night had fallen.
So they hid themselves to wait until
daybreak.
Now that night 1t CHANGED that Swan

the king and all his warriors departed

HOW THE GIANT GERROD1
WAS KILLED
By PoNN1R A. NEDwnL.

ERRoD the giant sat under the
shelter Of his elm and wondered
what had become of his brother
Gram. Twelve days had gone by
since Gram went forth to fish at the
seaside, and never had he returned.
Gerrod sought Gorth, his other brother,
under the ash nearby, but neither had
Gorth any news Of Gram, so Gerrod
went back and lay down upon his bed
of pine needles.
Now the house Of Gerrod was tre-
mendous elm-tree with thick trunk
towering to the sky. And Gerrod had
cut Oft the lower branches and drawn
down the long upper boughs to the
ground and fastened them there, and
he had woven dead twigs and reeds
between them to form roof to shelter
him from wind and storm.
AS Gerrod lay now on the ground he
heard rustling in the branches over
head, and two bright eyes looked down
at him through the leaves.
"Ahav' cried Gerrod; sis it thou. Bill
sing the Hawke"
"Yea, Gerrod,' answered the hawk

Gram is dead. He stole the child Of
Ingvar, the good king, and as he car
ried him on his ship out to sea the
great god Niord caused mighty storm
to arise, and the ship was sucked down
into the depths Of the waters. and the
Midgard Serpent swallowed the giant.
So perished thy brother Gram. my
self saw this thing"
When Gerrod heard these words he
rose up in mighty rage and cried:
''Sayest thou truth? Then shall have
vengeance for my brothers death. But
upon Niord cannot avenge myself. for
he is an immortal god. But who, sayst
thou, was the child who brought this
ill-fortune upon Gram?"
Then said the hawk. "Alfing, son Of
1ngvar, was the child.''
TIA" cried Gerrod, "Ingvar, the king
who rules beyond the ninth fjord? ?
Gladly will wreck my vengeance upon
him, for I hate him more than all
others of the race Of men!'
Now Gerrod lay under his elm three
days and three nights and thought on
Vengeance, but no plan could he make,
for he was very stupid as well as
