 | | After this confession, Hreidmar, with his sons, Reigen and Fafnir, seized the Aesir, who were powerless against persons they had wronged, and demanded of them, as a ransom, that they should cover the skin with unalloyed gold. |
 | | But fearing that Reigen might seek to avenge the death of Hreidmar, he took their father's helmet (Egershelm) and the sword Hrotha, and went to Gnytaheath, where he concealed his treasure in a cavern, and watched over it night and day in the shape of a dragon. |
 | | Reigen was killed, and confessed, before he died, that he had intended to slay his pupil. |
