Igdrasil

It was because Mohammed practised what he preached, that the small seed of his original idea blossomed at last into the mighty “Igdrasil” of the East—the great banyan tree of existence.

Sir John The little leaves on every tree, the rivers winding to the sea, The swinging tides, the wheeling winds, the rolling heavens above, Around the May-pole Igdrasil, they worked the Morrice-master's will, Persuaded into measure by the all-creative Love.

Asgard was overshadowed by the mighty tree Igdrasil.

The gods arose And took their horses, and set forth to ride O’er the bridge Bifrost, where is Heimdall’s watch, To the ash Igdrasil, and Ida’s plain.

But the Gods went not now, as otherwhile, Into the tilt-yard, where the Heroes fought, To feast their eyes with looking on the fray; Nor did they to their judgment-place repair By the ash Igdrasil, in Ida's plain, Where they hold council, and give laws for men.
