Anon Vitn 15VII/4 — hölda ‘of men’

Brimglóða fór bæði
brík og maðrinn ríki
í musterið mesta;
mannfjöldi kom hölda.
Brúðr af treganum tjáði
tilkall við hal snjallan;
þrætir þegar á móti
þegn af öllu megni.

Bæði brík brimglóða og maðrinn ríki fór í musterið mesta; mannfjöldi hölda kom. Brúðr tjáði tilkall við snjallan hal af treganum; þegn þrætir þegar á móti af öllu megni.

Both the plank of ocean-embers [GOLD > WOMAN] and the powerful man went into the very great church; a large crowd of men came. The woman brought charges against the clever fellow sorrowfully [lit. with sorrow]; the man immediately contests them with all his might.
