 Connections have been proposed between Dagr and other similarly named figures in Germanic mythology.Dagr is mentioned in stanzas 12 and 25 of the poem "Vafþrúðnismál".In stanza 24, the god Odin (disguised as "Gagnráðr") asks the jötunn Vafþrúðnir from where the day comes, and the night and its tides.
