Anon Sól 58VII/4 — hjörtu ‘hearts’

Dreyrga steina        þær inar dökku konur
        drógu daprliga;
blóðug hjörtu        hengu þeim fyr brjóst utan
        mædd við miklum trega.

Þær inar dökku konur drógu daprliga dreyrga steina; blóðug hjörtu hengu þeim fyr brjóst utan, mædd við miklum trega.

Those dark women were sorrowfully dragging gory stones; bloody hearts hung outside their breasts, exhausted by great grief.
