< < < Behold, the grave of a wicked man
A youth in apparel that glittered > > >


There was set before me a mighty hill


There was set before me a mighty hill,
And long days I climbed
Through regions of snow.
When I had before me the summit-view,
It seemed that my labour
Had been to see gardens
Lying at impossible distances.

A youth in apparel that glittered > > >
