“And at the bare sight of that hammer bright,

All the giants, thy foes, will fly.”

“Thou pleadest in vain; I come with Frey,

My brother in arms so brave:

Thy flesh to the ravens shall food supply,

Thy brains shall float on the wave.”

“O spare me, Frey!” thus Lok made reply,

“Thy mercy I humbly implore;

I’ll procure thee a steed of such matchless speed,

As the world never saw before.
