En við hjaldr, þars hauldar,
hugþrútit svellr, lúta,
— Muninn drekkr blóð ór benjum
blásvartr — konungs hjarta.
En hugþrútit hjarta konungs svellr við hjaldr, þars hauldar lúta; blásvartr Muninn drekkr blóð ór benjum.
And the courage-enlarged heart of the king swells at the battle where freeholders sink down; blue-black Muninn <raven> drinks blood from wounds.
[2] ‑þrútit: ‑þrútinn U, C, ‘þrut[…]’ B, ‘‑þruti. .’ 744ˣ
[2] hugþrútit ‘courage-enlarged’: This cpd, which is otherwise not attested in Old Norse, is formed from the noun hugr m. ‘mind, courage’ and the adj. þrútinn ‘enlarged, swollen’.
