Her bosom now is cased in steel,

A golden helmet crowns her hair.

Thor towers aloft in plates of brass,

With Miölner in his right hand gleaming:

Lok trips along in light cuirass,

His dark locks o’er his shoulders streaming.

Now marching on, the tedious way

They oft beguile with gay discourse;

Sudden a wild tempestuous sea

Appears in sight, and checks their course!
