  1. A quotation from the Poetic Edda

    The sun turns black,  
                        earth sinks in the sea,
    The hot stars down  
                        from heaven are whirled;
    Fierce grows the steam  
                        and the life-feeding flame,
    Till fire leaps high  
                        about heaven itself.
     
    [Sól tér sortna,
                        sígr fold í mar,
    hverfa af himni
                        heiðar stjǫrnur;
    geisar eimi
                        við aldnara,
    leikr hár hiti
                        við himin sjálfan.]

    Poetic Edda (800-1100) Old Norse anonymous collection of poems
    Völuspá [Prophecy of the Völva; Prophecy of the Seeress], st. 57 (AD 961) [tr. Bellows (1936)]
