Þhorn Harkv 3I/6 — gengr ‘comes’
‘Hvat es yðr, hrafnar? Hvaðan eruð ér komnir
með dreyrgu nefi at degi ǫndverðum?
Hold loðir yðr í klóum; hræs þefr gengr ór munni;
nær hygg ek yðr í nótt bjoggu, því es vissuð nái liggja.’
‘Hvat es yðr, hrafnar? Hvaðan eruð ér komnir með dreyrgu nefi at ǫndverðum degi? Hold loðir í klóum yðr; þefr hræs gengr ór munni; hygg ek yðr bjoggu nær í nótt, því es vissuð nái liggja.’
‘What is the matter with you, ravens? From where have you come with gory beaks at break of day? Flesh hangs from your claws; the stench of carrion comes from your mouths; I think you lodged last night near where you knew corpses were lying.’
