The deed the evil | Loki had done.

[39]. But ye all have heard,— | for of them who have

The tales of the gods, | who better can tell?—

What prize he won | from the wilderness-dweller,

Who both his children | gave him to boot.

[40]. The mighty one came | to the council of gods,

And the kettle he had | that Hymir’s was;

So gladly their ale | the gods could drink

In Ægir’s hall | at the autumn-time.
