The poetic Edda

Note 14 — The Ballad of The Victory-Bringer

Henry Adams Bellows translation

This stanza is clearly in bad shape; perhaps, as the manuscript indicates, a new stanza, of which most has been lost, should begin with line 3. Brimir: a giant (cf. Voluspo, 9 and 37); why Othin should have his sword is unknown.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
