Svart Skauf 7VIII/2 — sýniz ‘seem’

‘Sannaz má það,         að sýniz þú gamall
og stirðfættur         að strjúka heiman
og matvæli         mier að afla
niðjum okkar         til nauðþurftar.

‘Það má sannaz, að þú sýniz gamall og stirðfættur að strjúka heiman og að afla mier matvæli til nauðþurftar niðjum okkar.

‘It will prove true that you seem [too] old and stiff-legged to dash off from home and provide me with food supplies for the desperate need of our offspring.
