Note 3 — The Short Lay of Sigurth

Henry Adams Bellows translation

Brynhild: on the winning of Brynhild by Sigurth in Gunnar’s shape cf. Gripisspo, 37 and note. The poet here omits details, and in stanzas 32–39 appears a quite different tradition regarding the winning of Brynhild, which I suspect he had in mind throughout the poem.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
