      "Under the heaven's blue dome, a name
      I never knew more true to fame
      Than Rognvald bore; whose skilful hand
      Could tame the scorners of the land, --
      Rognvald, who knew so well to guide
      The wild sea-horses through the tide:
      The "Mountain-high" was the proud name
      By which the king was known to fame.
