Excerpt from Balder’s Death and Loke’s Punishment:
The literary form of these poems is a variety of Free Verse, but they were composed mainly before 1900 and therefore before the present school of Free Verse had been developed. This variety was evolved under the influence of the alliterative verse of the Eddas and Beowulf, but was an unconscious product, not in any sense an imitation.
