Sturl Hákkv 4II/10 — við

Bar tállaust
tvennan blóma
aldinviðr
einu sumri,
ok ókalt
útifuglar
öndvert ár
urpu tysvar,
þá er allvaldr
við jöfursnafni
tírargjarn
of tekit hafði,
ok hans gipt
hæstrar tíðar
vegilát
vaxa náði.

Aldinviðr bar tállaust tvennan blóma einu sumri, ok útifuglar urpu tysvar ókalt öndvert ár, þá er tírargjarn allvaldr hafði of tekit við jöfursnafni, ok vegilát gipt hans náði vaxa hæstrar tíðar.

The fruit tree blossomed twice without deceit in one summer, and wild birds laid eggs twice during the warm beginning of the year, when the fame-eager mighty ruler had received the royal title, and his splendid good fortune could increase at the most opportune time.
