text and translation

The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):

Ráðumk þér, Loddfáfnir,
en þú ráð nemir.
Njóta mundu ef þú nemur
þer munu góð ef þú getur:
Veistu ef þú vin átt
þann er þú vel trúir,
farðu að finna oft.
Því að hrísi vex
og hávu grasi
vegur er vætki treður.
