ÞjóðA Sex 24II/1 — eyðir ‘destroyer’

Áræðis naut eyðir
aldyggr Selundbyggva;
hugr ræðr hǫlfum sigri
— Haraldr sannar þat — manna.

Aldyggr eyðir Selundbyggva naut áræðis; hugr manna ræðr hǫlfum sigri; Haraldr sannar þat.

The most excellent destroyer of Sjælland-dwellers [= Haraldr] deployed his valour; men’s courage determines half the victory; Haraldr is the proof of that.
