Explore "Axel Thordson and Fair Valborg: a ballad" by Thomas James Wise on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ At the wide board at tables play, / With pleasure and with glee abounding / The ladies twain in fair array, / The game they play is most astounding.
How fly about the dies so small, / Such sudden turnings are they making; / And so does Fortune's wheel withal, / We scarcely know the route 'tis taking.
