"An ash I know, | Yggdrasil its name,
With water white | is the great tree wet;
Thence come the dews | that fall in the dales,
Green by Urth's well | does it ever grow."

– Voluspa, Verse 19, Bellows Translation

"Many a fearless swordsman
Received the Tears of Freyja
The more the morn when foemen
We murdered; we were present."

– SKÁLDSKAPARMAL, Translated by Arthur Gilchrist Brodeur
