ǪrvOdd Lv 23VIII (Ǫrv 56)/1 — á ‘upon’

Hefi ek á Saxa         ok á Svía herjat,
Frísi ok Frakka         ok á Flæmingja,
Íra ok Engla         ok endr Skota;
þeim hefi ek öllum         óþarfr verit.

Ek hefi herjat á Saxa ok á Svía, Frísi ok Frakka ok á Flæmingja, Íra ok Engla ok endr Skota; ek hefi verit óþarfr öllum þeim.

I have harried upon the Saxons and the Swedes, the Frisians and the Franks and upon the Flemings, the Irish and the English and formerly the Scots; I have been harmful to them all.
