with the kettle. After they had gone a long-way, Tyr saw Hymer and a host of his friends rushing after them.
Thor put down the kettle and killed all the giants.
Every harvest time Æger made a feast for the gods in memory of Thor's bravery.
THOR'S FIGHT WITH HRUNGNER.
One day when Odin was riding abroad on Sleipner, he passed by Jotunheim.
There he met Hrungner, one of the giants. Hrungner said, "Who are you and where did you get that fine horse?"
Odin replied, "I will wager my head that there is not so good a horse in Jotunheim."
Hrungner answered angrily that his horse, Goldmane, could take longer strides.
Then Odin challenged Hrungner to a race. In a short time Goldmane was brought, and the race began. Sleipner was always ahead.
Hrungner thought of nothing but of overtaking him. Before he knew it he had followed Odin into Asgard.
The gods were feasting, and they invited the giant to eat with them. Thor's drinking-horn was brought. Hrungner emptied it at a draught.
