Ne’er canst thou force.”
“Ay, I will seize what thou withholdest,
Firm is my faith
That naught that is living will not bow down to
Arnljot’s will.
Power can threaten,
Power can charm.”
“Nay, one thing is living, its name is hatred,
Ne’er hast thou heard:
Power is mighty, love is mightier,
Mightiest hate.”
“Never has hate availed to stay me,
Rather it has
Roused my courage and spurred my anger,
Turned it to scorn.
Hardens the hated
Warrior to chieftain.”
“Wilt thou descendants on hatred nurtured?
Wilt thou have seed
Vowed by their mother to purpose vengeful
For all she has borne?”
“Threats are ugly; but strong my race-stock;
Ne’er will avail thee
Efforts to make my offspring curse me:
Men beget men,
When they my deeds see,
Love me they must!”
