SÓLVEIG.
Old Norse name meaning "sun-way," from Icelandic sól
"sun" and vig "way." (An Icelandic-English Dictionary,
Vigfusson,
1874). The Danish form is Solvej.
Solveig—God
prosper your labor. You must not reject me. You sent for me
hither, and so you must take me.
Peer—Solveig! It cannot be!—Ay, but it
is!—And you're not afraid to come near to me!
Solveig—One message you sent me by little Helga;
others came after in storm and in stillness. All that your mother told
bore me a message, that brought forth others when dreams sank upon
me. Nights full of heaviness, blank empty days, brought me the
message that now I must come. (from "Peer Gynt," in Library
of the World's Best Literature, Ancient and Modern, Teacher's
Edition, vol. 14, 1902).
