There is not much talking now. A silence falls upon them all. This is no time to talk of hedges and fields, or the beauties of any country.

The sun pours down on the earth, on the lovely land that man cannot enjoy. He knows only the fear of his heart.

The streams shall run in gladness, The lakes shall shine and burn, And sorrow fail and sadness At the Mountain-king’s return!
