THE

INCANTATION

OF

HERVOR.

AWAKE, Angantyr; Hervor, the only daughter of thee and Suafu, doth awaken thee. Give me, out of the tomb, the hardened sword, which the dwarfs made for Suafurlama.

Hervardur, Hiorvardur, Hrani, and Angantyr; with helmet and coat of mail, and a sharp fword; with shield and accoutrements and bloody spear, I. wake you all under the roots of trees.
