[18]. Her needlework cast she | aside, and called

Her sons to ask, | with stern resolve,

Who amends to their sister | would make for her son,

Or the wife requite | for her husband killed.

[19]. Ready was Gunnar | gold to give,

Amends for my hurt, | and Hogni too;

Then would she know | who now would go,

The horse to saddle, | the wagon to harness,

(The horse to ride, | the hawk to fly,

And shafts from bows | of yew to shoot).
