text and translation
Gerðir opt fyr jǫrðu

Sveinn skerr ok til annars
eysund konungs fundar.
Út hefra lið lítit
lofsnjallr Dana allra,
hinn, es hvern vág sunnan,
hrafngrennir, lykr stǫfnum.
Eiðfastr Haraldr gerðir opt skeiðum fyr jǫrðu; Sveinn skerr ok eysund til fundar annars konungs. {Lofsnjallr hrafngrennir}, hinn, es lykr hvern vág sunnan stǫfnum, hefra út lítit lið allra Dana.
‘Oath-firm Haraldr often seals off his land with ships; Sveinn also cuts the island-sound to meet the other king. The praise-keen raven-feeder [WARRIOR = Sveinn], he who blocks every bay from the south with the prows, has no small force of all the Danes out [at sea].’
notes and context
As st. 2 above.
