Glatt erat mér síz mættum
— mart hremmir til snemma;
oss stóð geigr af gýgi
galdrs — él-Þrimu, skjaldar.
Hykk, at þegnum þykki
(þat er mest) koma flestum
(oss til ynðismissu
einhlítt) til mín lítit.

Séðu hvárt sár þín blæða
sátt nøkkut mik hrøkkva;
auðslǫngvir fekk engva
einfættr af þér skeinu;
meir er mǫrgum snerru
málskálp lagit Gjálpar
brjót, erat þegn í þrautir
þrekvandr, en hyggjandi.

Þótta ek hæfr at hrotta
hreggvindi fyrr seggjum,
þá er geirhríðar gnúði
grand hvast, ok Súgandi;
nú verðr á skæ skorðu
(skáldi sígr) at stíga
út með einum fæti
Íslands á vit (þvísa).

Réttum gengr en ranga
rennr sæfarinn, ævi,
fákr, um fold ok ríki
fleinhvessanda þessum;
hefk lǫnd ok flet frænda
flýit, en hitt er nýjast,
krǫpp eru kaup ef hreppig
Kallbak, en létk akra.

Information about a text: poem, sequence of stanzas, or prose work

This page is used for different resources. For groups of stanzas such as poems, you will see the verse text and, where published, the translation of each stanza. These are also links to information about the individual stanzas.

For prose works you will see a list of the stanzas and fragments in that prose work, where relevant, providing links to the individual stanzas.

Where you have access to introduction(s) to the poem or prose work in the database, these will appear in the ‘introduction’ section.

The final section, ‘sources’ is a list of the manuscripts that contain the prose work, as well as manuscripts and prose works linked to stanzas and sections of a text.
