Anon (FoGT) 28III/5 — miklar ‘great’

Þier giet eg, kall, ef kærir,
kraunk orð búin, — forðum
fat eg várkunnar vinnur —
— verðu kyrr og sit! — fyrri.
Sakir átt á mier miklar;
munu nær vera hæri
þær, sem þína aura
— það er hættiligt! — fætta.

Kall, ef kærir fyrri, giet eg búin þier kraunk orð; eg fat forðum vinnur várkunnar; verðu kyrr og sit! Átt miklar sakir á mier; þær, sem fætta aura þína, munu vera nær hæri; það er hættiligt!

Fellow, if you bring a charge first, I think hurtful words will be ready for you; formerly I followed the practices of compassion; be quiet and stay sitting! You have great offences to charge me with; those, which will diminish your fortune, will become still greater; that’s risky!
