Symbolic Measures Scop Unferth Hrunting: “The iron blade with its ill-boding patterns / had been tempered in blood. It had never failed / the hand of anyone who hefted it in battle, / anyone who had fought and faced the worst / in the gap of danger” ( ). Second sword: “Meanwhile, the sword / began to wilt into gory icicles / to slather and thaw. It was a wonderful thing, / the way it all melted...” ( ). Another depiction: “he examined the hilt, / that relic of old times. It was engraved all over / and showed how war first came into the world and the flood destroyed the tribe of giants. / They suffered a terrible severance from the Lord; the Almighty made the waters rise, / drowned them in the deluge for retribution, / In pure gold inlay on the sword-guards /there were rune-markings correctly incised / stating and recording for whom the sword / had been first made and ornamented / with its scrollworked hilt” ( ).
