In this fragment of the Prose Edda, Skáldskaparmál, translated by Anthony Faulkes, the Norwegian court-poet Bragi describes his meeting up with a Troll woman, who declares herself. It sums up the power of this piece well:
'Trolls call me
moon of dwelling-Rungnir,
giant's wealth-sucker,
storm-sun's bale,
seeress's friendly companion,
guardian of corpse-fjord
swallower of heaven-wheel;
what is a troll other than that?'
