William Morris,
The Story of the Volsungs — Chapter XLII: Gudrun sends her Sons to avenge Swanhild
“ Ah, better would it be if Sigurd came to meet me, and I went my ways with him, for here bideth now behind with me neither son nor daughter to comfort me. Oh, mindest thou not, Sigurd, the words we spoke when we went into one bed together, that thou wouldst come and look on me; yea, even from thine abiding place among the dead? ”
