Herv Lv 10VIII (Heiðr 27)/6 — Eyfuru ‘of Eyfura’

Mjök eruð orðnir,         Arngríms synir,
megir meingjarnir         at moldarauka,
er engi skal         sona Eyfuru
við mik mæla         í Munarvági.

Synir Arngríms, meingjarnir megir, eruð mjök orðnir at moldarauka, er engi sona Eyfuru skal mæla við mik í Munarvági.

Sons of Arngrímr, kinsmen keen on harm, you have greatly become the increase of the earth, since none of the sons of Eyfura will speak with me in Munarvágr.
