Margaret Clunies Ross (ed.) 2017, ‘Þorbjǫrn dísarskáld, Poem about Þórr 1’ in Kari Ellen Gade and Edith Marold (eds), Poetry from Treatises on Poetics. Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages 3. Turnhout: Brepols, p. 470.
Þórr hefr Yggs með ôrum
Ásgarð af þrek varðan.
Þórr hefr varðan Ásgarð af þrek með {ôrum Yggs}.
‘Þórr has defended Ásgarðr with power together with the messengers of Yggr <= Óðinn> [GODS].’
Unlike st. 2, st. 1 is not a direct address to Þórr. If it was part of a longer poem containing st. 2, it might conceivably have been a refrain (stef).
Text is based on reconstruction from the base text and variant apparatus and may contain alternative spellings and other normalisations not visible in the manuscript text. Transcriptions may not have been checked and should not be cited.
