Quoth raven to raven, on treetop resting, Seeking for food, “There is something I know,
“In mail-coat stands the son of Sigmund, A half-day old; now day is here; His eyes flash sharp as the hero’s are, He is friend of the wolves; full glad are we.”
The warrior throng a ruler thought him, Good times, they said, mankind should see; The king himself from battle-press came, To give the prince a leek full proud.
Helgi he named him, and Hringstathir gave him, Solfjoll, Snaefjoll, and Sigarsvoll, Hringstoth, Hotun, and Himinvangar, And a blood-snake bedecked to Sinfjotli’s brother.
Mighty he grew in the midst of his friends, The fair-born elm, in fortune’s glow; To his comrades gold the gladly gave, The hero spared not the blood-flecked hoard.
