  1. Thor said:
  2. 19 ‘I killed Thiazi, the powerful-minded giant,*
  3. I threw up the eyes of Allvaldi’s son
  4. into the bright heaven;
  5. they are the greatest sign of my deeds,
  6. those which since all men can see.
  7. What were you doing meanwhile, Harbard?’
  8.  
  9.  
  10. - Poetic Edda, Harbardzljod
  11.  
  12.  
  13. ("Thiazi: the account of the death of Thiazi, recounted in Snorri, Edda, pp. 60, 86–8, citing Thiodolf of Hvinir’s poem Haustlong, gives Thor no particular role in killing Thiazi. Loki claims the credit for it in Loki’s Quarrel, v. 50." - from the Explanatory Notes section included with the translation)
