(39,1)The Sun)][(39,1 
 
 
Hvernig skal kenna sól?  Svá at kalla hana dóttur Mundilfœra, systur Mána, kona Glens, eldr himins ok lopts. 
XXVI. “How should one periphrase the sun?  By calling her Daughter of Mundilfari, Sister of the Moon, Wife of Glenr, Fire of Heaven and of the Air. 
   
Svá sem kvað Skúli Þorsteinsson:
(135) Glens beðja veðr gyðju
guðblíð í vé, síðan
ljós kemr gott með geislum
gránserks ofan mána. 
Even as Skúli Thorsteinsson sang:
Glenr’s god-blithe Bed-Mate wadeth
Into the Goddess’s mansion
With rays; then the good light cometh
Of gray-sarked Máni downward. 
 
Svá kvað Einarr Skúlason:
(136) Hvargi er Beita borgar
bálgrimmustum skála
hár of hnossvin várum
heims vafrlogi sveimar. 
Thus sang Einarr Skúlason:
Whereso the lofty flickering
Flame of the World’s Hall swimmeth
(141,1) O’er our loved friend, who hateth
And lavisheth the sea-gold.
