Auðr var vegskona mikil. Þá er hon var ellimóð, bauð hon til sín frændum sínum ok mágum ok bjó dýrliga veizlu; en er þrjár nætr hafði veizlan staðit, þá valdi hon gjafir vinum sínum ok réð þeim heilræði; sagði hon, at þá skyldi standa veizlan enn þrjár nætr; hon kvað þat vera skyldu erfi sitt. Þá nótt eftir andaðisk hon ok var grafin í flœðarmáli, sem hon hafði fyrir sagt, því at hon vildi eigi liggja í óvígðri moldu, er hon var skírð. Eptir þat spilltisk trúa frænda hennar.
