Klœ Lv 1III/4 — lið ‘the crew’

Baðk sveit á Glað Geitis;
gǫrs íð at fǫr tíðum;
drǫgum hest á lǫg lesta;
lið flýtr, en skrið nýtum.

Baðk sveit á Glað Geitis; íð [e]s tíðum gǫr at fǫr; drǫgum hest lesta á lǫg; lið flýtr, en nýtum skrið.

I commanded the company onto the Glaðr <horse> of Geitir <sea-king> [SHIP]; preparation is often made for a voyage; we pull the horse of cargoes [SHIP] out to sea; the crew is afloat and we make use of the speed.
