Harbarth spake:
28."Wherefore reach over the sound, since strife we have none?
What, Thor, didst thou do then?"
Thor spake:
29."Eastward I was, and the river I guarded well,
Where the sons of Svarang sought me there;
Stones did they hurl; small joy did they have of winning;
Before me there to ask for peace did they fare.
What, Harbarth, didst thou the while?"
Harbarth spake:
30."Eastward I was, and spake with a certain one,
I played with the linen-white maid, and met her by stealth;
I gladdened the gold-decked one, and she granted me joy."
Thor spake:
31."Full fair was thy woman-finding."
