THE LAY CALLED THE SHORT LAY OF SIGURD.



Sigurd of yore,
Sought the dwelling of Giuki,
As he fared, the young Volsung,
After fight won;
Troth he took
From the two brethren;
Oath swore they betwixt them,
Those bold ones of deed.

A may they gave to him
And wealth manifold,
Gudrun the young,
Giuki’s daughter:
They drank and gave doom
Many days together,
Sigurd the young,
And the sons of Giuki.
