hjaldr einskǫpuðr galdra
— Gautr hvatti þrym þreyta
þann — ok Hilditanni.
Oflengi veldr yngva
ósætt, en vel mætti
herstefnandi hafna
hans dóm, Vǫlundr rómu.
úlfseðjandi, kveðju
heim, þás hánum sómi
heyra bezt með eyrum,
þvít skilmildra skalda
skǫrungmann lofak ǫrvan;
hann lifi sælstr und sólu
sannauðigra manna.
svanna vænstr í ranni;
Gerðr leysti sú svarðar
svarðakr raðar garða.
