Havamal Words Of The High One is a book that contains a collection of ancient Norse wisdom and poetry known as the Havamal. Translated by W. H. Auden, a renowned poet and scholar, the book offers insight into the values, beliefs, and customs of the Vikings. The Havamal is a series of verses attributed to the god Odin, who imparts his knowledge and advice on various topics such as hospitality, friendship, love, and warfare. The book also includes a brief introduction to Norse mythology and culture, providing context for the Havamal's significance. With its lyrical language and profound insights, Havamal Words Of The High One is a fascinating read for anyone interested in Norse history and literature.Two wooden stakes stood on the plain, On them I hung my clothes: Draped in linen, they looked well born, But, naked, I was a nobody.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
