A Consuming Fire

Sunday, January 4, 2015

Surtr fares from southward     with switch-eating flame;
On his sword shimmers     the sun of the war-gods;
The rocks are falling,     and fiends are reeling,
Heroes tread Hel-way,     and heaven is cloven.

 - Snorri Sturluson, The Prose Edda, Chapter 4: The Tricking of Gylfi
