text and translation

The new edition is either unpublished or unavailable.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



Haraldur konungur átti margar konur og mörg börn. Hann fékk
þeirrar konu er Ragnhildur hét, dóttir Eiríks konungs af
Jótlandi. Hún var kölluð Ragnhildur hin ríka. Þeirra sonur
var Eiríkur blóðöx.



Enn átti hann Svanhildi dóttur Eysteins jarls. Þeirra börn
voru Ólafur Geirstaðaálfur, Björn og Ragnar rykkill.



Enn átti Haraldur konungur Áshildi dóttur Hrings Dagssonar
ofan af Hringaríki. Þeirra börn voru Dagur og Hringur,
Guðröður skirja, Ingigerður.



Svo segja menn að þá er Haraldur konungur fékk Ragnhildar
ríku að hann léti þá af níu konum sínum.



Þess getur Hornklofi:



Hafnaði Hólmrýgjum

og Hörða meyjum,

hverri hinni heinversku

og Hölga ættar

konungr hinn kynstóri

er tók konuna dönsku.


Börn Haralds konungs voru þar hver upp fædd sem móðerni áttu.
Guttormur hertogi hafði vatni ausið hinn elsta son Haralds
konungs og gaf nafn sitt. Hann knésetti þann svein og
fóstraði og hafði með sér í Vík austur. Fæddist hann þar upp
með Guttormi hertoga. Guttormur hertogi hafði alla stjórn
landsins um Víkina og um Upplöndin þá er konungur var eigi
nær.
