Summary

This audiobook features a special tribal ambient version of the full text in addition to the raw narration.

These are the words of Odin the High One. Hávamál is presented as a single poem in the Icelandic Codex Regius, a collection of Old Norse poems from the Viking age. The poem, itself a combination of numerous shorter poems, is largely gnomic, presenting advice for living, proper conduct, and wisdom. It is considered an important source of Old Norse philosophy.
