Várum allir vestr með Skolla;
þar at landi sat lýða dróttinn.
Báru bragnar blóðgar undir,
sverðum skornar, en vér sigr höfðum.
Várum allir vestr með Skolla; þar sat dróttinn lýða at landi. Bragnar báru blóðgar undir, skornar sverðum, en vér höfðum sigr.
We were all in the west with Skolli; there the lord of men [RULER = Játmundr] ruled over the land. Warriors bore bloody wounds, cut with swords, but we had the victory.
[8] vér höfðum ‘we had’: Both 471 and 173ˣ read þaðan ‘from there’, so that the clause is without a verb. This reading is possible if the verb ‘had’ or ‘won’ is implied. The following stanza begins with höfðu ‘they had’, and it is possible the conjunction of two forms of the same verb in an exemplar of 471 and 173ˣ interfered with the transmission of the final word in Ǫrv 100.
