[32]. “A worthier woman | wouldst thou have been

If before thine eyes | we had Atli slain;

If thy brother’s bleeding | body hadst seen

And the bloody wounds | that thou shouldst bind.”

Brynhild spake:

[33]. “None mock thee, Gunnar! | thou hast mightily fought,

But thy hatred little | doth Atli heed;

Longer than thou, | methinks, shall he live,

And greater in might | shall he ever remain.
