Note 8 — The Lay of Hymir

Henry Adams Bellows translation

The youth: Tyr, whose extraordinary grandmother is Hymir’s mother. We know nothing further of her, or of the other, who is Hymir’s wife and Tyr’s mother. It may be guessed, however, that she belonged rather to the race of the gods than to that of the giants.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
