Not published: do not cite (Arngr Gd 16IV)
The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):
Veitull þótti ástvinr ýta,
illa líkar þat bóndum ríkum,
þýða þeir at ǫllu eyði
auð-miðlandi fólki snauðu;
eigi lét fyr ilsku gautan
eljangjarn því heldur varna,
aumum þegar hann hafði heima,
hlítar-kost, þótt féin sé lítil.

Veitull þotti ꜳst vínr ýta · illa likar þat bondum | rikvm · þyða þeir at aullv eyði · auð midlandi | folki snauðu · eigi liet firir illzku gautan | elian giarn þvi helldr uarna · aumum þegar | hann hafði heíma · hlitar kost þott feín se litil |
