The Wild Hunter | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In
the midst of the breaking clouds the wild chase was rushing near as
swift as the wind, so that the milk-ocean foamed briskly. The wild hunter
led on a white horse; from its golden-shimmering mane golden-brown dew
was trickling into the troughs of the milky ocean. The radiant head of the horseman was surrounded by a halo of redgolden
rays which surrounded his flowing hair like a golden helmet. The storms and rains fled from his red-golden breast-armour, that shone
like a beacon-light, as if they fled the sun. In his hand the hunter held a golden-silvery bow which often glistened
in the colours of the rainbow. “This is how the wild hunter ignites the fire of effervescent
joy of life in all creatures,” explained Sol. Two young wild boys in colourful, green-embroidered clothes accompanied the hasty horseman on fallow horses and carried his innumerable arrows of luck in golden quivers. |
