WORLD, what it means to us? ... part 2

It happened that where the FIRE and the ICY WATER MET, a huge CLOUD of STEAM rose UP and it was OUT OF THIS STEAM that a GIANT (YM-IR) was born.
He was a terrifying giant whose GROANS ECHOED UP and DOWN on the ONE, DEEP, STEEP-
SIDED VALLEY (an enormous ravine named "Gin-nun-ga-gap").

An enormous COW was ALSO BORN from the steam.  She was called Au-dhumb-la and FED the GIANT (Ym-ir) with her MILK.  Some time later, while the GIANT (Ym-ir) was SLEEPING,  TWO
GIANT CHILDREN appeared FROM HIS ARMS.
From the LEFT arm sprang a BOY and from the RIGHT arm, a GIRL. The children and grandchildren
of these GIANTS BECAME A RACE OF PEOPLE  called the H- rimt- hurses, DARK, MOODY GIANTS who INHABITED the NORTHERN- MOST HALF of the enormous RAVINE (Gin-nun-
ga-gap) called Ni- flhe- im.

Later, the COW (Au-dhumd-la), born from the steam, that fed the giant (Ym-ir), FREED another
SPIRITED BEING (god) from one of the BLOCK of ICE in that cold and desolate place. This godjhhh
was BURE, and HIS SON BOR HAD THREE further SONS:   WOTAN, HOENIR, and LOKI.
WOTAN became the FATHER OF ALL THE GODS.  AFTER Wotan, Hoenir and Loki were BORN, THERE WERE TWO RACES OF GODS and THEY FOUGHT over who should reign.

BATTLE raged OVER the ONE, DEEP, STEEP-SIDED VALLEY (an enormous ravine named
"Gin-nun-ga-gap") and finally the GIANT (Ym-ir) was SLAIN. His WOUNDS poured with RIVERS
of BLOOD and FROM THESE WERE BORN the CHILDREN and GRANDCHILDREN of the
GIANT.
The SONS of BOR (The three gods: Wotan, Hoenir and Loki) made the BODY OF THE GIANT (Ym-ir) INTO THE EARTH. They took his SKULL and made it INTO HEAVENS and PLACED a DWARF at  EACH CORNER to GUARD IT.
The dwarf of the NORTH was called NORD-ER, the dwarf of the SOUTH was called SUD-ER,
the dwarf of the WEST was called WEST-ER and the dwarf of the EAST was called OST-ER.
The SONS of BOR(the three gods: Wotan, Hoenir and Loki) then SPRINKLED the HEAVENS
with SPARKS FROM the SOUTHERN half of the ONE, DEEP, STEEP-SIDED VALLEY (an
enormous ravine named "Gin-nun-ga-gap") called Mu-spelhe-im, and MADE the STARS.
Now, the SONS of BOR, could tell DAY FROM NIGHT,  and so  the DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS
and YEARS were CREATED.
