Hrímgrímnir heitir þurs
er þik hafa skal
fyr nágrindr neðan;
þar þér vílmegir
á viðar rótum
geita hland gefi;
œðri drykkju
fá þú aldregi,
mær, at þínum munum,
mær, at mínum munum.

Hrímgrímne have
til husbond du
nede om liggrind langt;
der dig træle
ved træets rod
give de gjeders vand;
aldrig skal bydes
dig bedre drik,
mø! mod minde dit,
mø! med minde mit.

„Hrimgrimnir is he, |
the giant who shall have thee
In the depth by the doors of Hel;
To the frost-giants' halls |
each day shalt thou fare,
Crawling and craving in vain,
(Crawling and having no hope.)
36.
„Base wretches there |
by the root of the tree
Will hold for thee horns of filth;
A fairer drink |
shalt thou never find,
Maid, to meet thy wish,
(Maid, to meet my wish.)
