Anon Mv I 15VII/3 — greinum ‘explanations’

Fór, sú er flóði í tárum;
fann musterið svanni;
sína griet með greinum
gjörð og kraup að jörðu.
Þar sá flóðið fríða
* feskasta líkneskju,
þá er Máríu meyju
mynduð var til yndis.

She who was flooded with tears went; the woman found the church; she wept for her deed with explanations and bent to the ground. There the fair lady saw the most beautiful effigy, which was fashioned for the pleasure of the Virgin Mary.
