Langleit ertu, fóstra, ok lætr róa nefit;
ei hefi ek flagðit felligra litit;
eða hvert hefir þú förina görva?
Ertu langleit, fóstra, ok lætr nefit róa; ek hefi ei litit flagðit felligra; eða hvert hefir þú görva förina?
You are long-faced, foster-mother, and you let your nose row; I have not seen a more monstrous ogress; and where are you travelling to?
[1-2] ertu langleit … ok lætr róa nefit ‘you are long-faced … and you let your nose row’: A long, snout-like nose and large, hanging lips are mentioned as characteristics of giants in several fornaldarsögur, e.g. in the description of Geirríðr Gandvíkrekkja ‘woman of Gandvíkr’, a figure descended from giants, in GrL (FSGJ 2, 191; see the examples mentioned by Schulz 2004, 152-3).
