“The Lokasenna (Loki's taunts):
Njorth, you were sent from the west
as a hostage for the gods.
The daughters of Hymir
used your mouth as a urinal,
and you’ve tasted plenty of piss.
...
Freyja, you are a witch,
and have dealt out many curses.
I hear the gods found you
lying with your brother,
and that you farted then.
...
“Tyr,
or don’t you know your own wife
had a son by me?
You poor fool,
I’ll never pay you a penny
in compensation for that.
...
“Sif, I alone know
how you were unfaithful
to your husband Thor—
and I was the one you slept with.
...
And you, Odin, you always judge battles
unfairly for humans.
You have often given
defeat to the better side,
when you shouldn’t have.

And Odin said:
“Even if I did judge unfairly,
and made the better side lose,
I know that you,
for eight years,
lived on the earth down below
as a cow in milk, and as a woman,
and you’ve given birth to children—
I call that a pervert’s way of living!”

“Loki hid in the Falls of Frananger in the shape of a salmon, but the gods caught him. He was tied up with the intestines of his son Nari... Skathi took a poisonous snake and tied it up over Loki; poison dripped on his face from its mouth... this hurt him so badly that he trembled, and all the world with him. This is what is called an earthquake.”
