Vafthruthnir spake:
25."The father of day is Delling called,
And the night was begotten by Nor;
Full moon and old by the gods were fashioned,
To tell the time for men."

If thou knowest it, Vafthruthnir, now:

First with the gracious gods?"

27."Vindsval he was who was winter's father,
And Svosuth summer begat;"
