ǪrvOdd Ævdr 55VIII (Ǫrv 125)/8 — eptir ‘behind’

Brögnum þrimr         buðu skatnar
margir síðan         metorð þaðra,
en ek þeygi þat         þiggja vilda;
urðu báðir         þar bræðr eptir.

Margir skatnar buðu síðan þrimr brögnum metorð þaðra, en ek vilda þeygi þiggja þat; báðir bræðr urðu þar eptir.

Many men then offered noble status there to the three heroes, but I did not want to accept that; both brothers remained behind there.
