The Punishment of
LokiSnorri says in Gylfaginning
that the Æsir pursued Loki after the death of Baldr. Loki tried to evade
capture by shapeshifting into a salmon and hiding in a stream. The gods
noticed the ashes of a net, that Loki had invented and then burned, so
they made a net and used it to capture him. The gods used the guts of
one of Loki's sons to him to a rock with a snake dripping venom on his
head. Loki's wife Sigyn stayed with him and held a bowl to catch the
venom but had to leave Loki occasionally to empty the
bowl.
