"he is most daring, and best in stoutness of heart, and he has much authority over victory in battle; it is good for men of valor to invoke him.It is a proverb, that he is Týr-valiant, who surpasses other men and does not waver.
He is wise, so that it is also said, that he that is wisest is Týr-prudent. This is one token of his daring: when the Æsir enticed Fenris-Wolf to take upon him the fetter Gleipnir, the wolf did not believe them, that they would loose him, until they laid Týr's hand into his mouth as a pledge. But when the Æsir would not loose him, then he bit off the hand at the place now called 'the wolf's joint;' and Týr is one-handed, and is not called a reconciler of men."
