[12]. “Wise-woman, cease not! | I seek from thee
All to know | that I fain would ask:
What maidens are they | who then shall weep,
And toss to the sky | the yards of the sails?”
The Wise-Woman spake:
[13]. “Vegtam thou art not, | as erstwhile I thought;
Othin thou art, | the enchanter old.”
Othin spake:
“No wise-woman art thou, | nor wisdom hast;
Of giants three | the mother art thou.”
