Havamal Snippets 118: Beware of the bad woman and her deceit-crafty tongue
Lying women are harmful to good men, be they in the courts
during a divorce, or slander to friends and family. The Androsphere/Manosphere is replete with
tales of men who have suffered from the lying words of a poison-tongued woman.
118
Ofarla bíta
ek sá einum hal
orð illrar konu;
fláráð tunga
varð honum at fjörlagi
ok þeygi um sanna sök
[2] I saw a man
[1] deeply bitten
by the word of a bad woman;
her deceit-crafty tongue
was the death of him,
and yet the charge was not true.
[End.]
