text and translation
Rǫnn lézt, ræsir Þrœnda,
— reiðr þorðir bú meiða —
(hús namt hvert ok eisu)
hyrfeld (gefa eldi).
Grôu vildir þú gjalda,
gœðinga vinr, skœðar
— ǫrt renndu þeir undan —
jarls fylgjurum dylgjur.
Lézt rǫnn hyrfeld, {ræsir Þrœnda}; reiðr þorðir meiða bú; namt gefa hvert hús eldi ok eisu. {Vinr gœðinga}, þú vildir gjalda fylgjurum jarls grôu skœðar dylgjur; þeir renndu ǫrt undan.
‘You made buildings fire-razed, ruler of the Þrœndir [NORWEGIAN KING = Magnús]; angry, you dared to damage homesteads; you proceeded to give every house to fire and embers. Friend of nobles [RULER], you wanted to pay back the followers of the jarl grimly for their noxious hostilities; they ran rapidly away.’
notes and context
This follows st. 15, uninterruptedly in Hkr, and with a brief link in H-Hr.
