| “ | Norse kings, or thanes, gave out rings to favored subjects as tokens of esteem. Ring giver is a kenning (a poetic expression) that means King. "The ring too I will give thee, which was burnt with the young son of Odin. Eight of equal weight will from it drop, every ninth night." -- The Poetic Eddas, The Lay of Skinir |
