The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):
Búning átti byskup vænan
blíðr at hafa í guðligu stríði;
bitrligt sverð með hjálmi hǫrðum,
hraustan skjǫld ok brynju trausta;
spjót ok boga sem spora, ok skeyti,
spentar hosur, at fótum henta,
maðr er traustr á mjúkum hesti,
mátuligt beizl, þat er ek skal vátta.
