1. These lines are taken from the Icelandic Rune Poem, more specifically they quote the lines about the Raido (ᚱ; r): the rune of rides.2. Sleipnir, "the best of horses", is Odin's horse: he has eight legs, while Odin has only one eye. These lines come from the Saga of Hervör and Heidrek.3. This is a list of the horses of the Æsir.4. These lines, as well as the list above, are taken from the Poetic Edda.5. These names come from the Prose Edda, although the list itself is copied from Wikipedia
