 :Yet has Mímir's friend
 * On me bestowed
 * Amends of evil
 * Which I account better.


 * He has given me the art&mdash;
 * He, the Wolf's Opposer,
 * Accustomed to battle,&mdash;
 * Of blemish blameless.

Here he is called High God, and Friend of Mímir, and Adversary of the Wolf.

Thus sang Refr:


 * Swift God of Slain, that wieldeth
 * The snowy billow's wave-hawks,
 * The ships that drive the sea-road,
 * To thee we owe the dwarves' drink.

Thus sang Einarr Tinkling-Scale:


 * 'T is mine to pour the liquor
 * Of the Host-God's mead-cask freely
 * Before the ships' swift Speeder:
 * For this I win no scorning.

Thus sang Úlfr Uggason:


 * His steed the lordly Heimdallr
 * Spurs to the pyre gods builded
 * For the fallen son of Odin,
 * The All-Wise Raven-Ruler.
