Excerpt from Hans of Iceland, Vol. 2 of 2 The regiment of musketeers from Munkholm was on the March trough the narrow passes lying between Throndhjem and Skongen. Sometimes it moved along the brink of a torrent, and the long of bayonets crept through the ravine like a huge serpent with glittering scales, sometimes it wound around a mountain, making it look like one of those triumphal columns about which curves an army of heroes in bronze. The soldiers marched with trailing weapons and cloaks dragging in the dust, looking surly and tired, for these noble fellows are averse to anything but battle or inaction. The coarse banter and threadbare jests which delighted them but yesterday had lost their savor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
