The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable. The following is taken from an old edition (Skj where relevant):
Heitust ást við himna gæti
hjartanu veitti styrk svá bjartan,
aldri stǫkkk hans fótr á foldu
furðu réttr af boðorða stéttum;
rǫðuls brautar má réttliga heita
riddari frækn ok góður læknir
mildings slíkur maðr, er aldri
mæddi stríð, en hjǫrtun græddi.
