Asgard Stories by Mary H. Foster and Mabel H. Cummings.
Thor's Wonderful Journey One morning, Thor asked Loki, the fire god, if he would like to go forth with him to Ugard, the stronghold of the giants, where he was going to try, with his mighty hammer, to conquer those fierce enemies of Asgard.
Loki was glad to go with him, and the two gods started forth in Thor's chariot, drawn by two goats.
Thor often went on a journey, so the dwellers in Asgard did not wonder to see him getting ready for a long drive.
As Thor and Loki drove along, the heavy chariot rattled and made a thunder echo among the hills.
People in our world, down below in Midgard, heard the rumbling and said,
What a heavy thunderstorm!
How the thunder crashes and rumbles!
Toward evening the travellers stopped at the peasant's hut, and Thor, alighting from his chariot, went to the door of the house to ask shelter for the night.
I will gladly give you a room, but I have no food in the house, said the man who opened the door.
Oh, never mind that, said Thor.
I will provide the food.
So Thor and Loki stopped for the night at the peasant's hut.
They found the family within, the man, his wife, and two children, a boy and a girl.
All looked on in great surprise to see Thor kill his two goats and cook them for the evening meal.
Eat all you wish of the meat, said Thor.
but be careful not to break any of the bones.
Throw them all into the two skins which I have spread upon the floor.
Now the boy, whose name was Thyof, wondered why Thor should say this, and as he happened to have a piece of the leg bone, he thought there could be no harm in breaking it open to get out the soft marrow to eat.
