Sigv Austv 8I/3 — sem

Mista ek fyr austan
Eiðaskóg á leiðu
Ôstu bús, es æstak
ókristinn hal vistar.
Ríks fannka son Saxa;
saðr vas engr fyrir þaðra
(út vask eitt kveld heitinn)
inni (fjórum sinnum).

Ek mista bús Ôstu á leiðu fyr austan Eiðaskóg, es æstak ókristinn hal vistar. Fannka son ríks Saxa; engr saðr vas fyrir inni þaðra; vask heitinn út fjórum sinnum eitt kveld.

I missed [felt the want of] Ásta’s farm on the way east of Eidskogen when I asked the unchristian man for lodging. I did not meet the son of powerful Saxi; no truth was present in that place; I was ordered out four times in one evening.
