I the hateful mallet hid,
Late possess’d by Elorrid,
Low in dreary caves profound,
Eight miles underneath the ground:
He the mallet shall retrieve,
That Freya’s hand to me shall give.

Lok mounting boyant in the sky,
Shook his sounding pinions high:
The lands he left where giants roam,
And quickly reach’d his distant home.
Thor he met, in thought profound,
Pacing slow his halls around:
Anxious doubts the chief opprest,
Who, thus his words to Lok addrest.
