Odin's Rune Song II

"Under that root which turns into the direction of Niflheim is the spring Hvergelmir, and Níðhöggr gnaws the root from below." —Prose Edda, Gylfaginning 15 (Anthony Faulkes translation)

Völuspá

An ash I know standing, named Yggdrasil,
 a lofty tree, laved with white dew;
from there come the dews that fall in the dales,
it stands ever green over Urd’s well.

—Völuspá 19 (Poetic Edda, Carolyn Larrington translation)
