Sturl Hákkv 37II/6 — þeysti ‘hastened’

Svá var Elfr
öll at líta
glæsilig,
sem á gull sæi
frægðarfólk,
er flota þeysti
lofsæll konungr
Ljóðhúsa til.

Öll Elfr var svá glæsilig at líta, sem frægðarfólk sæi á gull, er lofsæll konungr þeysti flota til Ljóðhúsa.

The entire Götaälv was so glorious to see, as if the famous people were looking at gold, when the praise-blessed king hastened his fleet to Lödöse.
