Thor spake:
25."Unequal gifts    of men wouldst thou give to the gods,
If might too much thou shouldst have."

Harbarth spake:
26."Thor has might enough,    but never a heart;
For cowardly fear    in a glove wast thou fain to crawl,
And there forgot thou wast Thor;
Afraid there thou wast,    thy fear was such,
To fart or sneeze    lest Fjalar should hear."

Thor spake:
27."Thou womanish Harbarth,    to hell would I smite thee straight,
Could mine arm reach over the sound."
