Another of its roots extended to the I'rost-giants, and under it was Mimir's well, the source of wisdom and wit. One day All-Father begged and obtained a draught of its water, but had to leave one of his eyes as a pledge for it. The third root of the tree extended to Niflheim, and was gnawed by the serpent Nidhogg, which thus sought to destroy the tree; but this was prevented by the three Norns, who daily drew water from the Urdar fountain, with which they sprinkled the roots. The names of the ...ISTorns were Urd, Yerdandi, and Skuld (that is. Past, Present, and Future), from the first of which is derived the word weird. They had a beautiful dwelling under the sacred ash, where they fixed the fate of every man that was born; and to their decrees even the gods themselves were subject. From the water with which the tree was sprinkled came the dewdrops which fell in the dales, and which men called honey-dew — the food of bees. Upon the branches of the tree was perched an eagle, which knew many things, and between whose eyes sat a hawk ; while a squirrel ran up and down the ash, seeking to cause strife between the eagle and the serpent Nidhogg, and four harts ran across its branches, biting its buds.
