The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):
Vélheptir gaf vísum krapti
vífi sýn, því er hlaut at rýna,
vetrum fyrr en væri betra
vel þrem tigum, ef rétt skal telja,
augun sín strauk opt í hreinu,
áðr batnaði, signdu vatni;
Kráka var þá ára eikin
áttatigi ok þriggja váttuð.
