Sveinn Frag 1III/1 — lǫngum ‘for a long time’

Þar kømr, lyngs en lǫngum
lind vanði mik strindar
leika leynisíka
lævi, ô til sævar.

Þar kømr ô til sævar, en lind strindar leynisíka lyngs vanði mik lǫngum leika lævi.

There the river comes to the sea, but the linden tree of the land of the hiding fishes of the heather [SNAKES > GOLD > WOMAN] for a long time accustomed me to use deceit.
