ǪrvOdd Lv 9VIII (Ǫrv 41)/7 — í ‘in’

Þú látt, Sigurðr,         í sal meyja,
meðan við Bjarma         börðumz tysvar.
Háðum hildi         heldr snarliga,
en þú, seggr, í sal         svaft und blæju.

Sigurðr, þú látt í sal meyja, meðan börðumz tysvar við Bjarma. Háðum hildi heldr snarliga, en þú, seggr, svaft í sal und blæju.

Sigurðr, you lay in the girls’ room, while we fought twice against the Permians. We conducted the battle rather keenly, but you, fellow, were sleeping in a hall under a bed-cover.
