Well done with the poem, Grace. You see, they can talk clearly, those
skalds, when they want to...

> Spari eg eigi goð geyja.
> I spare not to scoff at gods.

Yes, or you could put it more idiomatically as "I don't baulk at
mocking the gods", "I don't shrink from scoffing at the gods."

> Grey þykir mér Freyja.
> Freyja seems to me a coward.

Literally 'grey' = "bitch".
