Bibliotheca Polyglotta

Snorri-Edda

Old Norse, ed. Faulkes, p. 18,1-19,1

Svá segir hér:
Askr Yggdrasils
drýgir erfiði
meira en menn viti.
(19,1) Hjǫrtr bítr ofan
en á hliðu fúnar,
skerðir Níðhǫggr neðan.

English, tr. Brodeur, 1916, p. 29,1-30,1

as is here said:
Ash Yggdrasill | suffers anguish,
More than men know of:
(30,1) The stag bites above; | on the side it rotteth,
And Nídhöggr gnaws from below.

Norwegian, tr. Holtsmark, p. 12,1

Så er det sagt her:
Ygdrasils ask
av arbeid tynges
mer enn mennesker vet.
