Bragi Frag 5III/4 — stillir ‘the ruler’

Eld of þák af jǫfri
ǫlna bekks við drykkju
(þat gaf) Fjǫlnis fjalla
(með fulli mér stillir).

Of þák eld bekks ǫlna af jǫfri við drykkju Fjǫlnis fjalla; stillir gaf mér þat með fulli.

I received from the prince fire of the bench of mackerels [SEA > GOLD] for the drink of the Fjǫlnir <= Óðinn> of the mountains [GIANT = Suttungr > POETRY]; the ruler gave me that with a toast.
