The poetic Edda

Note 43 — The First Lay of Helgi Hundingsbane

Henry Adams Bellows translation

The phrase “under houses,” which follows the manuscript, may be an error for “in wolf-caves.” Line 3 (or 4) may be an interpolation. The manuscript indicates line 5 as the beginning of a new stanza. Siggeir: cf. stanza 38, note.
