SnSt Ht 100III/6 — alla ‘in all’

Gløggva grein         hefk gǫrt til bragar,
        svát es tírætt hundrað talit;
hróðrs ørverðr         skala maðr heitinn vesa,
        ef sá fær alla háttu ort.

Hefk gǫrt gløggva grein til bragar, svát tírætt hundrað es talit. Maðr skala vesa heitinn ørverðr hróðrs, ef sá fær ort alla háttu.

I have made a clear account of poetic form, so that one hundred [stanzas] counted in tens are enumerated. A man must not be called unworthy of praise if he can compose in all verse-forms.
