For unknown it is | where at eve he may be;

It is ill thy luck to lose.”

Sigurth had a great battle with Lyngvi, the son of [[369]]Hunding, and his brothers; there Lyngvi fell, and his two brothers with him. After the battle Regin said:

[26]. “Now the bloody eagle | with biting sword

Is carved on the back | of Sigmund’s killer;

Few were more fierce | in fight than his son,

Who reddened the earth | and gladdened the ravens.”

Sigurth went home to Hjalprek’s house; thereupon Regin egged him on to fight with Fafnir. [[356]]
