Þar hykk sigrunni svinnum
sylgs valkyrjur fylgja
heilags tafns ok hrafna.
Hlaut innan svá minnum.
Þar hykk valkyrjur ok hrafna fylgja {svinnum sigrunni} sylgs heilags tafns. Hlaut svá innan minnum.
‘There I believe valkyries and ravens follow the wise victory-tree [WARRIOR = Óðinn] to the drink of the holy sacrifice. Thus [the hall] received [decoration] inside with memorable pictures. ’
