The Frost Giant’s daughter (Дочь ледяного гиганта)

The clangor of sword and ax had died away (лязг меча и секиры стих = замер; to die away — замирать (о звуке)); the shouting of the slaughter (кричание = крики бойни) was hushed (был успокоен = утих); silence lay (тишина легла; to lie — лежать) on the red-stained snow (на красный: «красным окрашенный» снег). The bleak, pale sun (холодное, бледное солнце) that glittered so blindingly from the ice fields and the snow-covered plains (которое сверкало так ослепительно от ледяных полей и снегом покрытых равнин) struck sheens of silver from rent corselet and broken blade (отбивало блески серебра = отражалось серебряным блеском от расщепленных лат и сломанных клинков; to rend — расщеплять) where the dead lay as they had fallen (где мертвые лежали, /так/ как они упали; to fall — падать, пасть). The nerveless hand yet gripped the broken hilt (бессильная рука еще сжимала сломанный эфес; to grip — сжимать, крепко держать); helmeted heads (головы в шлемах: «ошлемленные головы», helmet — шлем), drawn back in their death throes (запрокинутые в агонии; to draw back — запрокидывать), tilted red beards and golden beards grimly upward (откинутые рыжие и золотистые бороды мрачно вверх), as if in a last invocation to Ymir the frost giant (как если бы в последней мольбе к Имиру, морозному гиганту), god of a warrior race (богу расы воинов).

Across the reddened drifts and the mail-clad forms, two figures glared at each other (через покрасневшие сугробы и одетые в кольчугу формы две фигуры смотрели друг на друга: «на каждый другого»). In all that utter desolation, they alone moved (во всем этом абсолютном уединении они одни двигались). The frosty sky was over them (морозное небо было над ними), the white illimitable plain around them (белая безграничная равнина вокруг них), the dead men at their feet (мертвые люди/мужчины у их ног). Slowly through the corpses they came (медленно сквозь/среди/через трупы они шли; to come — приходить, идти), as ghosts might come to a tryst through the shambles of a dead world (как привидения могут/могли идти к месту встречи через руины мертвого мира). In the brooding silence, they stood face to face (в нависшей тишине они стояли лицом к лицу; to stand — стоять).

Both were tall men (оба были высокими мужчинами), built as powerfully as tigers (сложенными /так/ мощно, как тигры). Their shields were gone (их щиты «были уйденными» = пропали, потерялись), their corselets battered and dented (их латы помяты и посечены). Blood dried on their mail; their swords were stained red (кровь засохла на их кольчуге, их мечи были окрашены красным). Their horned helmets showed the marks of fierce strokes (их рогатые шлемы показывали отметины яростных ударов). One was beardless and black-maned (один был безбородым и черноволосым); the locks and beard of the other were as red as the blood on the sunlit snow (локоны/волосы и борода другого были /такие/ красные/рыжие, как кровь на освещаемом солнцем снегу).
