  Questing Spirit: PE: Sigrdrifumol
The mistake made by the annotator in thinking that the epithet "sigrdrifa," rightly applied to Brynhild as a "bringer of victory," was a proper name has already been explained and commented on (note on Fafnismol, 44).
Brynhild, here disguised by the annotator as "Sigrdrifa," appears simply as a battle-maid and supernatural dispenser of wisdom; there is no trace of the daughter of Buthli and the rival of Guthrun.
Sigrdrifa, slew Hjalmgunnar in the battle, and Othin pricked her with the sleep-thorn in punishment for this, and said that she should never thereafter win victory in battle, but that she should be wedded.

 Sigrdrifa's Lay
This rune is certainly one of the runes most able to carry mysterious forces, and it is the one that is 'fatal for women', that is to say that it is the one that prevents them from using their magic.
Sigrdrifa, pricked by this thorn, will lose her independence (she must marry, emphasizes the Edda) after having been wakened from her magical sleep, and she must teach Sigurdr the secret of the runes.
In this verse, Sigrdrifa attributes the responsibility of the invention of the runes to Odin, the Crier of the Gods.
