Hundk Lv 6VIII (HjǪ 38)/1 — upp ‘up’

Statt upp, Hástigi,         ok gef rúm gestum,
mönnum velbornum,         furðu farmóðum.
Mik hafa eigi öðlingar         áðr heim sóttan,
þeir er mér sýnz hafa         með betra bragði.

Statt upp, Hástigi, ok gef gestum rúm, velbornum mönnum, furðu farmóðum. Öðlingar hafa eigi sóttan mik áðr heim, þeir er sýnz mér hafa með betra bragði.

Stand up, Hástigi, and make space for the guests, well-born men, very travel-weary. Princes have not visited me before who seemed to me to have better behaviour.
