Summary

Annie Klingensmith Stories of Norse Gods and Heroes… (1894)

Then Odin went to the master of the thralls and asked for work. The giant hired Odin because he was so much in need of workmen.
This giant, whose name was Bauge, was Suttung's brother. Odin said he would work all summer for one draught of the song mead.
Bauge told Odin to begin the work and he would see about the mead. When he found that Bolverk, as Odin called himself, could do the work of the nine thralls, he wished to keep him. But Suttung would not give one drop of the mead.
