GunnLeif Merl I 101VIII/5 — her ‘men’

Frétti fyrðar,         þeirs á fold búa
enn at óra         ævi liðna,
hvat of her gerisk         ok huga leiði.
Beri in nýju spjǫll         við spásǫgu;
sé síðan þat,         hvé saman falli.

Frétti fyrðar, þeirs búa enn á fold at liðna ævi óra, hvat gerisk of her ok leiði huga. Beri in nýju spjǫll við spásǫgu; sé síðan þat, hvé falli saman.

Let men who remain on earth after our lifetime has passed find out what becomes of men and pay heed. Let them compare the new tidings with the prophecy; then let them see how the two coincide.
