I was first and last    at the deadly fight
There where Thjazi we caught."

Skathi spake:
51."Wert thou first and last    at the deadly fight
There where Thjazi was caught,
From my dwellings and fields    shall ever come forth
A counsel cold for thee."

Loki spake:
52."More lightly thou spakest    with Laufey's son,
When thou badst me come to thy bed;
Such things must be known    if now we two
Shall seek our sins to tell."

Then Sif came forward and poured mead for Loki in a crystal cup, and said:

53. "Hail too thee, Loki,    and take thou here
The crystal cup of old mead;
For me at least,    alone of the gods,
Blameless thou knowest to be."
