When I walked between the dog-rose hedges of my manhood, it was in a Christian land: in Arthur's land. There I gleamed in the iris of creation's eye, and there I laughed as a man should, between the pillars of my ribs in the wide nave of my chest. A Christian land. And men broke their swords in the love of battle, and broke their hearts in the love of women, and broke the holy bread in the love of God. - Thor, with Angels.
