==Form and date==
The poem is one of the shortest Eddic poems, consisting of 14 ''[[fornyrðislag]]'' stanzas. Some late paper manuscripts contain about five more stanzas, those are thought to be of young origin. [[Sophus Bugge]] believed them to have been composed by the author of ''[[Forspjallsljóð]]'', which is thought to have been written in the 17th century. Bellows, on the other hand, suggests the poem is much older but could not date it earlier than the tenth century.
