{"id":15412,"count":1,"description":"R\u00edgs\u00feula or R\u00edgsm\u00e1l, \"Lay of R\u00edg,\" is an Eddic poem in which a Norse god named R\u00edg or R\u00edgr , described as \"old and wise, mighty and strong\" fathers the classes of mankind. The prose introduction states that R\u00edgr is another name for Heimdall, who is also called the father of mankind in V\u00f6lusp\u00e1.\nIn R\u00edgs\u00feula, Rig wanders through the world and fathers the progenitors of the three classes of human beings as conceived by the poet. The youngest of these sons inherits the name or title \"R\u00edg\" and so in turn does his youngest son, Kon the Young or Kon ungr (Old Norse: konungr, king). This third R\u00edg was the first true king and the ultimate founder of the state of royalty as appears in the R\u00edgs\u00feula and in two other associated works. In all three sources he is connected with two primordial Danish rulers named Dan and Dan\u00fe\u00edr.\nThe poem R\u00edgs\u00feula is preserved incomplete on the last surviving sheet in the 14th-century Codex Wormianus, following Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda.
