RvHbreiðm Hl 47III/1 — hag ‘behaviour’

Hrólfs spurðak hag;
hafs veitti dag;
fló Faðmis setr;
fáir * kunnu betr.
Hann veitti her
haukslóðar sker;
brast linna láð
við lofðungs ráð.

Spurðak hag Hrólfs; veitti dag hafs; setr Faðmis fló; fáir * kunnu betr. Hann veitti her sker haukslóðar; láð linna brast við ráð lofðungs.

I heard about Hrólfr’s behaviour; he gave daylight of the sea [GOLD]; the seat of Faðmir <serpent> [GOLD] flew; few could do better. He gave skerries of the hawk-track [ARM > GOLD] to the army; the land of snakes [GOLD] burst at the counsel of the hero.
