Thor spake:
49."Thy tongue still makes thee say    what seems most ill to me,
Thou witless man! Thou liest, I ween."

Harbarth spake:
50."Truth do I speak,    but slow on thy way thou art;
Far hadst thou gone    if now in the boat thou hadst fared."

Thor spake:
51."Thou womanish Harbarth!    here hast thou held me too long."

Harbarth spake:
52."I thought not ever    that Asathor would be hindered
By a ferryman thus from faring."

Thor spake:
53."One counsel I bring thee now:    row hither thy boat;
No more of scoffing;    set Magni's father across."

Harbarth spake:
54."From the sound go hence;    the passage thou hast not."
