Description

After Sigurd kills the dragon Fafni (Fáfnismál, Poetic Edda), he takes an object from his treasure, which he says:

   

           The Helm of Awe
        I wore before the sons of men
        In defense of my treasure;
        Amongst all, I alone was strong,
        I thought to myself,
        For I found no power a match for my own.
