MIDGARDR. [In Cumberland, England, are three farms: _High-garth_,
_Middle-garth_, _Low-garth_.] The mid-yard, middle-town, that is,
the earth, is a mythological word common to all the ancient Teutonic
languages. The Icelandic Edda alone has preserved the true mythical
bearing of this old Teutonic word. The earth (Midgard), the abode of men,
is situated in the middle of the universe, bordered by mountains and
surrounded by the great sea; on the other side of this sea is the Utgard
(out-yard), the abode of the giants; the Midgard is defended by the yard
or burgh Asgard (the burgh of the gods) lying in the middle (the heaven
being conceived as rising above the earth). Thus the earth and mankind
are represented as a stronghold besieged by the powers of evil from
without, defended by the gods from above and from within. _Midgard._
MIDGARDSORMR [The serpent of Midgaard]. The world-serpent hidden in the
ocean, whose coils gird around the whole Midgard. Thor once fishes for
him, and gets him on his hook. In Ragnarok Thor slays him, but falls
himself poisoned by his breath. _Midgard-serpent._

name from Mimer, and means Mimer's tree. _Mimameider._
MIMIR. The name of the wise giant keeper of the holy well Mimis-brunnr,
the burn of Mimer, the well of wisdom, at which Odin pawned his eye for
wisdom; a myth which is explained as symbolical of the heavenly vault
with its single eye, the sun, setting in the sea.
MJOLNIR. Thor's formidable hammer. After Ragnarok, it is possessed by his
sons Mode and Magne. _Mjolner._
MISTILTEINN [Eng. _mistletoe_]. The mistletoe or mistletwig, the fatal
twig by which Balder, the white sun-god, was slain. After the death
of Balder, Ragnarok set in. Balder's death was also symbolical of the
victory of darkness over light, which comes every year at midwinter. The
mistletoe in English households at Christmas time is no doubt a relic
of a rite lost in the remotest heathendom, for the fight of light and
darkness at midwinter was a foreshadowing of the final overthrow in
Ragnarok. The legend and the word are common to all Teutonic peoples of
all ages. _Mistletoe._
