SHREDS AND PATCHES.
THE HARDY NORSEMEN.
SONG.
THE hardy Norsemen meet to-night
To drain the oaken pail;
Then lay aside your helmets bright,
And coats of rugged mail;
Bring forth the scald and bid him sing
Of Odin, and of Thor,
Until the roof responsive ring
To the glorious deeds of war.
To drain the oaken pail;
Then lay aside your helmets bright,
And coats of rugged mail;
Bring forth the scald and bid him sing
Of Odin, and of Thor,
Until the roof responsive ring
To the glorious deeds of war.
Chorus:
Then we'll drain to the dregs each bowl;
For at sorrow and care we mock;
And we'll drink till the thunders roll
On the morn of Ragnarok.
Then we'll drain to the dregs each bowl;
For at sorrow and care we mock;
And we'll drink till the thunders roll
On the morn of Ragnarok.
