Anon (Vǫls) 3VIII (Vǫls 23)/4 — fyr ‘before’

Sigurðr Grana         sverði keyrði;
eldr sloknaði         fyr öðlingi.
Logi allr lægðiz         fyr lofgjörnum;
bliku reiði,         er Reginn átti.

Sigurðr keyrði Grana sverði; eldr sloknaði fyr öðlingi. Allr logi lægðiz fyr lofgjörnum; reiði bliku, er Reginn átti.

Sigurðr drove Grani on with his sword; the fire was extinguished before the prince. All flame died down before the one eager for praise; the harness, which Reginn had owned, flashed.
