Odin & Thor in China
Part 7
In Far Asgard, little time has passed since
Loki was not seen and good Odin had
Changed. Confusion and care caused all the gods
To counsel, asking Odin why he winced
At war. Indeed, he called for all mortals
To war no more, and live in peace. Some balked
And the gods cried out, "What of Ragnarok!"
"We will need warriors to hold our hall!"
Odin, eye empty and Thor quite subdued
Sat in Their Hall listening to the comments
Then rose and said (with one voice); "WE HAVE SPENT
TOO MUCH TIME ON THESE QUARRELS. LET THE FEUD
END! LET US LIVE WITH THE GIANTS! WE'VE RENT
THE HOUSE OF PEACE ENOUGH, LET US REPENT!"
