Anon GnóðÁsm 1III/3 — ljúga ‘lying’

‘Megu í gegn glyggi,’
kvað grefja tyggi,
— hálft nam hann þat ljúga
‘hrafnar trautt fljúga.’

‘Hrafnar megu trautt fljúga í gegn glyggi,’ kvað tyggi grefja; hann nam ljúga þat hálft.

‘Ravens can hardly fly against the storm,’ said the prince of hoes [FARMER]; he was half lying.
