ErrSt Lv 1III/1 — sunnan ‘from the south’

Enn, þótt ófrið sunnan
ǫll þjóð segi skaldi,
(hlǫðum Geitis mar grjóti)
glaðir nennum vér (þenna).

Enn nennum vér glaðir, þótt ǫll þjóð segi skaldi ófrið sunnan; hlǫðum þenna mar Geitis grjóti.

But we [I] travel cheerfully, though all people tell the poet about disturbance from the south; we [I] freight this steed of Geitir <sea-king> [SHIP] with stone.
