text and translation
‘Leiddisk þá fyr Lúfu landi at halda
hilmi inum halsdigra; holm lét sér at skjaldi.
Slógusk und sessþiljur, es sárir vôru;
létu upp stjǫlu stúpa; stungu í kjǫl hǫfðum.
‘Inum halsdigra hilmi leiddisk þá at halda landi fyr Lúfu; lét holm at skjaldi sér. Slógusk und sessþiljur, es vôru sárir; létu stjǫlu stúpa upp; stungu hǫfðum í kjǫl.
‘‘The fat-necked prince [Kjǫtvi] grew tired then of holding the land against Lúfa (‘Shaggy-locks’) [Haraldr]; he let an islet be a shield to himself. They threw themselves under the bench-planks, those who were wounded; they let their rumps stick up; they plunged their heads into the bilge.’
notes and context
As for st. 7. The Hkr prose preceding sts 7-11 portrays the flight of Haraldr’s enemies at the close of the battle of Hafrsfjǫrðr: Þá flýði Kjǫtvi konungr ok í hólma nǫkkurn, þar er vígi var mikit ‘Then Kjǫtvi went away and onto a certain islet, where there was a large stronghold’.
