They awaited the Maiden's return
Astray She was in the Forest darke
-Her onlie Friende
The homeward Path - Hidden by spreading Snow
O could She but
Follow the starrie Trails
She would not be lost
Amongst these Spruces darke
Wooden arms embraced the foreign Guest
Sad was their Song to her
The Halls of the Mountaine Kinge
Clamoure for Christian Bloode
The Netherworlde:
"Near at hande; a Maid in grieffe
Handes joyn'd in Prayer
A Litanie rises to the Heaven above"
From Sprigges above
Upon her Head
Drop by drop as Bloode
From the Bodie of Christe
The Maiden:
"Alas! Alone In Foreste deep
Tonight, I feel and fear
No one remembers Me"
C A P I T E L I I - S O E L E N G A A E R B A G A A S E N E E D
P A R T I I - B E T W I X T C R A G G E S A D E S C E N D I N G S U N N E
Slowly, slowly She turns her Head
Listening to distant words
Spoken from somewhere Below, O'th'Heart's woe
The Maiden:
"Betwixt the cragges a descending Sunne
The shadows grow O so long
Soon the Night will come
To binde and imprison Me"
Downe her cheek a Teardrop fell
of longinge for those back Home
How She wished to hold&be held
And out of Sorrow rose Her nameless Payne
Shrunken in weepinge
Lost in the Darke
On these Midnighte paths
Asleep She falls on a bed of Moss
Silence falls upon the Trees
Then, o'er the paths of her dreams,
A dense Veil falls
Now art Thou by many remembered!
C A P I T E L I I I - G R A A B L I C K B L E V H U N V A E R
P A R T I I I - S H E S E N S E S E Y N E O F G R E Y
From afar She is watch'd
By eyne that play in grey
While above the Moone, silent, Glides
The Maiden:
"Cold eyne I sense
What Creatures are near?
Fast, far away from here I must flee
Or by force their Magick will steal me away"
Eyne hold her still
Caress Her from afar
Norwegian Nighte turns colde
When howling Wolves do sing
Thunder rolling (Fear rides in the air)
A snowcladde Worlde
-In silence
Alone She is, and astray
Throbbing fast, her Hearte
Her Bloode turning to Ice
The Netherworlde:
Here lieth Sorrow's Source
Between the thornecladde Trees
So faire a virtuous Maide
Her dreams invite the Dawn
On these Damask'd cheeks
On her Mouth bereft of Smile
A torrent of Tears runs free
While the Worlde sleeps
C A P I T E L I V - E E N S T E M M E L O C K E R
P A R T I V - A V O I C E B E C K O N S H E R
Awaking on shadowie pathes
In the deep green Glade
When a whispering Voice She hears
From deep inside the Woodland
The Voice:
"Come, if Thou wilt
In Darkness come
My Eye shall win Thee
My Hair shall bind Thee"
(Wordes tender and tempting...)
The Maiden:
"O sweet Voice, why
Dost Thou bring back my Payne
To this silent forest Glade?"
The Voice:
"Maide, what canst Thou wish to win?
Come follow Me into my Home
Bring to thy minde our Joy,
Our Harmonie, our Bliss"
The Maiden:
"I can not comprehend - I feel so strange...
Please speak... Must I, must I?"

P A R T V - S P E L L B O U N D - I N T O T H E M O U N T A I N S
The Maide begg'd for release
Her Plea to no avail
Again a Maiden vanished
They used her as they pleas'd
And did not use her kindlie
To the Hall of Shadows
So cold the Mountain's blue
The Mountaine bade her welcome
Embraced her harshlie and hard
Again the worlde was Night
And She forever lost
Her dying breath a scream
A long gone Era, not forgotten
- A bodie once mortal, now Stone
The Moone faded, gone!
And dim be the Stars
Cry! Rain and Storm!
Far north in the Mountain wildes
Below crest and cragge
They play
