- But when Óðinn heard that good land was available from Gylfi to
- the east, he went there, and he and Gylfi came to terms, because Gylfi did
- not think he had the power to withstand the Æsir. Óðinn and Gylfi often
- competed in tricks and illusions, and the Æsir were always superior. Óðinn
- established his dwelling by Lǫgrinn at the place now called Old Sigtúnir,
- and built a large temple there and performed sacrifices according to the
- custom of the Æsir. He took possession of lands over the whole area that he
- gave the name Sigtúnir to. He gave dwelling places to the temple priests.
