sullu benjar; hlífðir gullu;
hilmir vakði — hneitir rakði
hjǫrva salma — skúrir malma.
Hyggju knarrar harða veggi
hjoggu sverðum vísa ferðir
vægðar trauð*ar valskrar þjóðar
varg at tafni knífum grafna. | {Snarpar tungur slíðrar} gengu; benjar sullu; hlífðir gullu; hilmir vakði {skúrir malma}; hneitir rakði {salma hjǫrva}. Ferðir vísa, trauð*ar vægðar, hjoggu sverðum {harða veggi {knarrar hyggju}}, grafna knífum, valskrar þjóðar varg at tafni. {Sharp tongues of the scabbard} [SWORDS] wagged; wounds swelled; shields resounded; the ruler stirred up {showers of weapons} [BATTLES]; the sword spread {psalms of swords} [BATTLES]. The leader’s companies, reluctant to grant mercy, cut with swords {the hard walls {of the ship of thought}} [HEART > CHESTS], incised by knives, of French people as food for the wolf.
