Not published: do not cite (Árni Gd 14IV)
The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):
Tákn frægðuz fyr vǫtn, er vígði
vélrýrir, ok sǫngva dýra,
gagn sem heilsa greiddiz brǫgnum,
grand firðiz ok vélar fjanda;
sjatna mein, en búfé batnar,
boginn réttiz, en hrjúfir sléttaz,
sloknar eldr, en verkir vikna,
veitiz sýn, en dauði týniz.

Takn frægdust fyrer votn er vijgdi || Vin ryrer og saungua dyra | Gagn sem heilsa greiddist brognum | Grand firdist og vælar sp[...]nda . fi ⸝anda⸜ | Sietna menn enn büfie batnar | Boginn rettist enn hriufer sliettast | Slóknar elldur enn verkir vikna | Veytist syn enn daudi tynist |
