FAIRY MYTHOLOGY.

Another sort there be that will
Be talking of the Fairies still;
And never can they have their fill,
As they were wedded to them.

Von wilden Gezwergen han ich gehöret sagen
Sie sei'n in hohlen Bergen; und dass sie zu Schirme tragen
Eines, heisset Tarnkappe, von wunderliche Art-
Wer's hat an seinem Leibe, der soll gar wohl sein brwahrt.

NIBELUNGEN LIED.
Of wild dwarfs I oft have heard men declare
They dwell in hollow mountains; and for defence they wear
A thing called a Tarn-cloak, of wonderful nature
Who has it on his body, will ever be secure.
