Hjþ Lv 12VIII (HjǪ 34)/1 — heitir ‘is called’

Hörðr hann heitir,         hefir fátt prýði,
velr um vápn sjaldan,         vill ei skart þiggja,
öldungis einninn         ekki hræðiz,
maðr mjök snarligr;         met ek hann mikils.

Hann heitir Hörðr, hefir fátt prýði, velr sjaldan um vápn, vill ei þiggja skart, öldungis einninn hræðiz ekki, maðr mjök snarligr; ek met hann mikils.

He is called Hǫrðr, has little gallantry, seldom chooses weapons, will not accept finery, likewise absolutely shows no fear, a man most keen; I value him greatly.
