 mentioned Odin. When he named Odin, Ketil got angry, for 

 he did not believe in him ; and sung a song : 



Odin worship J know that Framar 



Did I never, Will fall sooner than 



Though long I have lived ; This high head. 



Twice the sword of Ketil did not bite ; the third time it cut 

 Framar from the shoulder down to the loins. Then Frarnar 

 sung : 



There is courage in Haeng, Now the father of Baldr proved false 



Dravendil is sharp, It is unsafe to trust him ; 



It bit the word of Odin Enjoy well thy hands, 



As if it were nothing ; Here we shall part. 



Framar thereupon died, and Ketil went home " (Ketil Hseng's 

 Saga, c. 5).
