Vígfús þanns hétu;
slíta þar síðan
sôrum benskárar
brôð af bǫð-Nirði,
Bjarnar arfnytja.

framðisk ungr sigri
Snorri sár-orra
sverði gnógs verðar;
laust í lífs kǫstu,
Leifa má-reifir,
unda gjalfrs eldi,
þás Arnkell feldi.

sára dynbôru
ǫrn á ulfs virði

þar lét þá Snorri
þegna at hjǫrregni
fjǫrvi fimm numna;
svá skal fjandr hegna.

brôð hykk þar fengu
gørvi gnógs styrjar
gjóðum sigfljóða;
lôgu lífs vanir
leiðendr hafreiðar
þrír fyr þrekstœri;
þar fekk hrafn væri.
