Grímnismál (
Sayings of Grímnir) is one of the
mythological poems of the
Poetic Edda. It is preserved in the
Codex Regius manuscript and the
AM 748 I 4to fragment. It is spoken through the voice of
Grímnir, one of the many guises of the god
Odin. Through an error, King Geirröth tortured Odin-as-Grímnir—a fatal mistake, since Odin caused him to fall upon his own sword.
