Anon Hsv 92VII/2 — at

Höfugt erfiði        ef þér at höndum kemr,
        vertu glaðmæltr gumi;
fagnandi maðr        neytir flest at vinna;
        öll eru lostverk létt.

Ef höfugt erfiði kemr at höndum þér, vertu glaðmæltr gumi; fagnandi maðr neytir at vinna flest; öll lostverk eru létt.

If a difficult problem comes your way, be a cheerfully-speaking man; a joyful man manages to achieve most things; all labours of love are easy.
