Hrafngreddir, styggr hlífar, vann hrædda þrœnzka drótt í byggðum, es þeim þótti bǫl markar sveima. Hygg, at her-Baldr lyki sinn aldri tveggja hersa; jór svôru vasa svangr; ǫrn fló til hanga.
The raven-feeder [WARRIOR], shy of protection, frightened the host from Trøndelag in the settlements, when it seemed to them that the harm of the forest [FIRE] was raging. I believe that the army-Baldr <god> [WARRIOR] ended simultaneously the lives of two hersar; the horse of the troll-woman [WOLF] was not hungry; the eagle flew to the hanged ones.
