‘Hrafn and Sleipnir, splendid horses, Valr and Léttfeti, Tjaldari was there, Gulltoppr and Goti, I heard Sóti mentioned, Mór and Lungr with Marr. ’
In ms. A, a heading written in red ink (hersta hæiti ‘names of horses’) precedes the introductory statement Þæssir ærv hæstar taldir i Þorgrims þvlv ‘These are the horses enumerated in Þorgrímr’s þula’.
