“Harken, Loki, | and heed my words,

Nowhere on earth | is it known to man,

Nor in heaven above: | our hammer is stolen.”

[3]. To the dwelling fair | of Freyja went they,

Hear now the speech | that first he spake:

“Wilt thou, Freyja, | thy feather-dress lend me,

That so my hammer | I may seek?”

Freyja spake:

[4]. “Thine should it be | though of silver bright,

And I would give it | though ’twere of gold.”
