 | | They are engraved on the shield that is found before the brilliant god, on Arvak's ear and on Alsvin's hoof, (3 places) On the wheel that turns under Rungnir's chariot, on Sleipnir's teeth, and on the runners of the sled (3 places) |
 | | Further, the Icelandic poem calls it the "clouds' buckle", so that Sowelo fits very well in the first of the three places described by Sigrdrifa: the shield that is found before the brilliant god. |
 | | Lastly, the third place, Alsvin's hoof, is related to a horse, and a runic poem on Ehwaz says that the steed is proud of its hooves. |
