Her sire, the giant Narf; an Asa bright,

Delling, became her husband; then did Night

Give birth to honest Day: thus oft arise

Virtue and grace from ugliness and vice.

But Night when she o’er earth her ride extends,

Mounted on Hrimfax, whom she often lends

To Skada, acts in concert with the brood

Of giants, and conceals their deeds of blood.

But Moon, the graceful child with golden hair

About her temples, boasts a courage rare,
