Ǫttuð skreyttum ôrum með flaustum austr í salt; landvǫrðr, bôruð lind af landi, randir á skip. Neyttuð segls, ok sættuð stundum sundvarpaði; mǫrg mjǫk róin ôr sleit mikla bôru und þér.
You urged decorated oars alongside the ships east on the salt sea; land-guardian [RULER], you carried the linden-shield from the land, shields onto the ships. You made use of the sail and sometimes deployed the sea-thrower [OAR]; many a much-rowed oar cut the great swell beneath you.
[6] stundum: so all others, corrected from ‘stundo’ in a later hand Kˣ
[6] stundum ‘sometimes’: The adv. could be taken with either or both of the verbs in ll. 5-6: neyttuð ‘you made use of’ and sættuð ‘you deployed’ (as here).
