Gunhildr walked along the stream/
The clear water rippled/
Dancing over the stones, smooth as eggs/
She picked one up and placed it into her pocket/
She met an old beggar on the street who asked her for a bite to eat/
Having naught else, she offered him the stone/
He lifted his broad rimmed hat in thanks/
And cracked the stone into his open mouth/
Drinking the golden yolk/
Gunhildr looked on in surprise and gave a quick prayer/
The old man smiled/
"I thank you for your help, for even though you thought your assistance useless you offered it notwithstanding"
And with a resounding crack of thunder, the old man vanished
