The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):
Alla framdi eyðir villu
embættis-gjǫrð fǫgrum hætti,
messur skýrt af mjúku hjarta
mest vandaði hann guði til handa;
skatna kindum skína vitni
skilríkust, at drotni líkar
atferð hans með reglu réttri,
raun sannar þat fjǫlda manna.

Alla framdi eyder villu | Embættis gíord fogrum hætti | Messur skyrt af miuku hiarta | Mest vandadi hann Gudi til handa | Skatna kindum skyna vitne | skilrykust ad drottne lykar | Atferd hans med reglu rettre | Raun sannar þat fiolda manna |
