I shall put you in charge of all the trees and flowers,
and shall send one of the Asher to teach you, so that you may be doing some good in the world.
Then the little elves went to work among the flowers, and Fry, the bright god of summer and sunshine, was a kind master to them.
He taught them how to open the folded buds in the sunshine, to fill the honey cups, and lead the bees along the flower passages to find their food.
to hatch the birds' eggs and teach the little ones their songs, and then each night to fetch the water for jewel drops to be hung on every leaf and blade of grass.
When the work was finished and the moon had risen, these busy elves and fairies enjoyed many a happy evening, dancing and frisking on the green by moonlight.
And so our world of Midgard
was filled with busy work and play.
Even now, in our time, the people in the lands of the North and in Germany have many old sayings and stories that have come down to them from the days long ago.
There is a beautiful white flower in the North which is called Bode's Brow, because it is so pure and bright, like the face of the dear sun god Bode.
And in some places where the farmers gather in the harvest of grain, they leave a little bunch of it standing in the field for Father Oden's horse.
We have some English names to remind us of those old tales of our forefathers.
For we have Tuesday, named Fortier or Chew, the brave god who gave his right hand to save his friends.
Wednesday,
or Walden's Day, named for Odin, Thursday for Thor, a thunder god, and Friday for either the goddess Frigga, or Friar, or for Fry, the god of summer, who ruled the fairies.
