FriðÞ Lv 15VIII (Frið 17)/6 — konu ‘woman’

Heill Elliði!         Hlauptu á báru,
brjóttu í trollkonum         tennr ok enni,
kinnr ok kjálka         í konu vándri,
fót eða báða         í flagði þessu.

Heill Elliði! Hlauptu á báru, brjóttu tennr ok enni í trollkonum, kinnr ok kjálka í vándri konu, fót eða báða í þessu flagði.

Hail Elliði! Run on the wave, break teeth and foreheads of the troll-women, cheeks and jaw-bone of the wretched woman, one leg or both of this ogress.
