The harmful enclosure of many lands [SEA] did great harm to the splendid cloak of the spear-tree [WARRIOR = Þorkell]; the ruler did not hold back from remedying the damage. After that the beautiful precious cloth and the grey fur on it became for the ruler the same or even finer in a single moment.
[5] jǫfri: efri Flat
[5] gerðisk jǫfri ‘became for the ruler’: Although Óláfr is not grammatically the agent, the sense is probably as suggested in Skj B: ved kongen(s jærtegn) ‘by the king(’s miracle)’.
