Tonight, Þvörusleikir arrives:
The fourth was Spoon Licker;
like spindle he was thin.
He felt himself in clover
when the cook wasn't in.
Then stepping up, he grappled
the stirring spoon with glee,
holding it with both hands
for it was slippery.

Tonight, Stúfur arrives:
Stubby was the third called,
a stunted little man,
who watched for every chance
to whisk off a pan.
And scurrying away with it,
he scraped off the bits
that stuck to the bottom
and brims - his favorites.

Tonight, Giljagaur arrives:
The second was Gully Gawk,
gray his head and mien.
He snuck into the cow barn
from his cragy ravine.
Hiding in the stalls,
He would steal the milk, while
the milkmaid gave the cowherd
a meaningful smile

Tonight, Stekkjastaur arrives:
The first of them was Sheep-Cote Clod
He came stiff as wood,
to prey upon the farmer's sheep
as far as he could.
He wished to suck the ewes,
but it was no accident
he couldn't; he had stiff knees
- not too convenient.
