The Poetic Edda: Translated from the Icelandic with an Introduction and Notes, 1923

Henry Adams Bellows · stanza 131

1923

I rede thee, Loddfafnir! and hear thou my rede,—Profit thou hast if thou hearest,Great thy gain if thou learnest:I bid thee be wary, but be not fearful;(Beware most with ale or another’s wife,And third beware lest a thief outwit thee.)
