Eil Þdr 22III/2 — faðir ‘the father’

Vreiðr stóð Vrǫsku bróðir;
vá gagn faðir Magna;
skelfra Þórs né Þjalfa
þróttar steinn við ótta.

Bróðir Vrǫsku stóð vreiðr; faðir Magna vá gagn; steinn þróttar Þórs né Þjalfa skelfra við ótta.

The brother of Rǫskva [= Þjálfi] stood furious; the father of Magni <god> [= Þórr] won victory; the stone of valour [HEART] of neither Þórr nor Þjálfi trembles with terror.
