Völuspá: A Star Guide by Peter Krüger ©2014

Sól varp sunnan, sinni mána, hendi inni hœgri um himinjódyr. Sól þat né vissi hvar hon sali átti, stjörnur þat né vissu hvar þær staði áttu, Máni þat né vissi hvat hann megins átti.

"From the south, Sol, Moon's companion, cast her right hand o'er the rim of heaven; Sol knew not where she had mansions. Stars knew not where they had stations. Moon knew not what might he had."
