Hristi hvatt, þás reistisk,

samði fólk, en frǫmðusk,
fullsterk, hringserk, grams verk.
Hǫnd lék (herjum reyndisk)
hjǫrr kaldr (allvaldr mannbaldr);
egg frák breiða bjoggu
bragning fylking; stóð þing.

text
prose order
{Army-tunics} [BYRNIES] were shaken violently when the very long standard-pole was raised; people fastened {the ring-shirt}, [BYRNIE] and the mightily strong deeds of the lord were furthered. The cold sword played with the hand; the mighty ruler proved to the men to be a true hero; I heard that the prince equipped the broad battle-array with the blade; the assembly commenced. |
context: This dróttkvætt
variant is called þríhent
‘triple-rhymed’ because each even line contains three aðalhendingar rather than two. The hendingar all occur in syllables with secondary stress in positions 2, 4, and 6, which
means that the last hending falls on
the ultimate rather than on the penultimate syllable.
notes: The headings are 29 (Tˣ) and þríhent (U(47r)). This is the last heading (and first line) recorded in the index in U (U(47r)). The metre is similar to that of RvHbreiðm Hl 11-12, but it is not attested elsewhere in the extant corpus of skaldic poetry. — For this event, see Note to st. 34 [All].
