Anon Hsv 138VII/6 — dagr ‘the day’

Óreiðinn        skal ýta hverr
        ok sjá sem gerst við grunum;
hugsjúkr maðr        kvíðir hvervetna;
        aldri honum dagr um dugir.

Hverr ýta skal óreiðinn ok sjá sem gerst við grunum; hugsjúkr maðr kvíðir hvervetna; dagr um dugir honum aldri.

Every man must [be] calm and be careful of suspicion as much as possible; an anxious man is afraid everywhere; the day never helps him.
