Surely the fact that Silk is an analog of Odin must have been mentioned
here?

Black bird.  One eye.   Staff.



I know that I hung
in the windtorn tree
nine long nights
weapon-wounded,
consecrated to Odin
myself to my Self above
in the tree, whereof none knows
the root whence it sprang



Slepnir, the eight-legged horse!!!



How long was Silk in the pit?   Nine days?
