ǪrvOdd Ævdr 64VIII (Ǫrv 134)/8 — vilt ‘desired’

Unða ek eigi,         áðr Ungara
lofðunga tvá         líta knáttak.
Réð ek með öðrum         arfs at kveðja;
veitta ek jöfri         vilt ofsinni.

Ek unða eigi, áðr knáttak líta tvá lofðunga Ungara. Ek réð at kveðja arfs með öðrum; ek veitta jöfri vilt ofsinni.

I was not happy until I saw the two princes of the Hungarians. I claimed the inheritance with one [of them]; I granted the prince desired support.
