 Heimdallr wandered along a seashore, and referred to himself as "Rígr".In the poem, Rígr, who is described as a wise and powerful god, walks in the middle of roads on his way to steads, where he meets a variety of couples and dines with them, giving them advice and spending three nights at a time between them in their bed.The wives of the couples become pregnant, and from them come the various classes of humanity.
