(víða ferr Yggs líð)
Gellir vissi fyrir fall,
flatir skriðusk menn at;
Lopti vas sú gefin gipt,
grjóti mœtti hans spjót;
Jóan leyfði ok þá
ǫldum at líta skjǫld.

kaldrôðum Þorvaldi
(nýtik Fjǫlnis flýti-
feng), en til var engi;
Þórðr munat virðum virðask,
vann á dauðum manni
(áðr sló á hodda hlœði
hvikan) með spjót et mikla.

hringeygr af várþingi;
áðr beið ilt ok síðan
Jóseppr af hvalfjósum.
