Anon (TGT) 38III/3 — hǫfði ‘a head’

At kom gangandi,        þar es jǫfrar bǫrðusk;
helt hann upp hǫfði:        ‘hér es þér skattr, sultan.’

Gangandi kom at, þar es jǫfrar bǫrðusk; hann helt upp hǫfði: ‘hér es þér skattr, sultan.’

Walking, he arrived where the princes were fighting; he held up a head: ‘here’s treasure for you, sultan.’
