The generous prince distributed – the men received [it] – Sif’s <goddess’s> scalp-cords [HAIR > GOLD], ice of the bow-compulsion [ARM > SILVER], the reluctant payment for Otr [GOLD], the tears of Mardǫll <= Freyja> [GOLD], the fire of Órun <river> [GOLD], the shining speeches of Iði <giant> [GOLD].
[4] svelli dalnauðar ‘ice of the bow-compulsion [ARM > SILVER]’: Aside from the fact that this is the only silver-kenning in sts 4-6, it is also anomalous as being without a mythological basis. Dalnauðr ‘bow-compulsion’, a hap. leg., refers to the arm that impels the bow.
