Description

Menia and Fenia (the title in the list of illustrations). The beacon in the background is a reference to a stanza from Gróttasöngr:

18. Fire I see burning
east of the burgh;
tidings of war are rife:
that should be a token;
a host will forthwith
hither come,
and the town burn
over the king. Thorpe's translation
