ÞSjár Frag 3III/7 — heldr ‘very’

Varð sjǫlf suna,
nama snotr una,
Kjalarr of tamði,
kvôðut Hamði,
Guðrún bani;
goðbrúðr Vani;
heldr vel mara;
hjǫrleik spara.

Guðrún varð sjǫlf bani suna; snotr goðbrúðr nama una Vani; Kjalarr of tamði mara heldr vel; kvôðut Hamði spara hjǫrleik.

Guðrún herself became the killer of her sons; the wise god-bride [Skaði] did not begin to love the Vanr [Njǫrðr]; Kjalarr <= Óðinn> tamed horses very well; they did not say that Hamðir was stingy with sword-play [BATTLE].
