After Ragnarök: A new Earth rises from the sea by Emil Doepler 1905

"She sees arise,
The second time,
From th' sea, the earth
Completely green:
Cascades do fall;
The eagle soars,
That on the hills
Pursues his prey.

The Gods convene
On Ida's plains,
And talk of man,
The worm of dust:
They call to mind
Their former might,
And th' ancient runes
Of Fimbultyr (Odin)."

-Völuspá 59-60
