ÚlfrU Húsdr 8III/2 — goð ‘the gods’

Kostigr ríðr at kesti,
kynfróðs þeims goð hlóðu
hrafnfreistaðar, hesti
Heimdallr, at mǫg fallinn.

Kostigr Heimdallr ríðr hesti at kesti, þeims goð hlóðu at fallinn mǫg kynfróðs hrafnfreistaðar.

Splendid Heimdallr rides a horse to the pyre which the gods erected for the fallen son of the kin-wise raven-tester [= Óðinn > = Baldr].
