Úlfr Lv 1II/8 — þingaþinga

Esa stǫllurum stillis
stafnrúm Haralds jafnan
— ónauðigr fekk auðar —
innan þǫrf at hvarfa,
ef, hǫrbrekka, hrøkkva,
hrein, skulum tveir fyr einum
(ungr kenndak mér) undan,
(annat) þingamanni.

Esa þǫrf stǫllurum stillis at hvarfa jafnan innan stafnrúm Haralds—fekk auðar ónauðigr—, ef, hrein hǫrbrekka, skulum hrøkkva undan tveir fyr einum þingamanni; ungr kenndak mér annat.

There is no need for the lord’s marshals always to idle inside Haraldr’s prow-area—I acquired wealth without coercion—, if, pure flax-slope [WOMAN], we must flee two before one þingamaðr; as a youth, I got accustomed to something else.
