Havamal Words Of The High One is a book that contains a collection of ancient Norse poems and wisdom sayings, also known as the Sayings of the High One. The book is translated into English by W. H. Auden, a renowned poet and scholar. The Havamal is a part of the Poetic Edda, a collection of Norse mythology and legends. The poems in Havamal are believed to have been written by Odin, the Norse god of wisdom, war, and death. The book is divided into different sections, each containing a series of short poems that offer advice and guidance on various aspects of life, such as love, friendship, wisdom, and courage. The poems are written in a poetic and metaphorical style, but their messages are clear and practical. Havamal Words Of The High One is a fascinating read that offers insights into the ancient Norse culture and the values and beliefs of its people.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.
