Bragi Þórr 3III/2 — landa ‘lands’

Hamri fórsk í hœgri
hǫnd, þás allra landa,
œgir Ǫflugbarða,
endiseiðs of kenndi.

Œgir Ǫflugbarða fórsk hamri í hœgri hǫnd, þás of kenndi endiseiðs allra landa.

The terrifier of Ǫflugbarði <giant> [= Þórr] lifted the hammer in his right hand, when he recognised the boundary-saithe of all lands [= Miðgarðsormr].
