This anonymous st. (Anon (Hák) 3) in hrynhent metre (see SnSt Ht 62III, SnE 1999, 27) is preserved in mss E, F, 42ˣ, 81a, 304ˣ (8 has a lacuna), 325VIII 5 b and Flat. E is the main ms.

Hóli gœddusk hirðmenn Skúla;
hrukku lítt, meðan full vas skrukka;
drukku þeir af Danmǫrk rekkar;
drógusk lítt of fjǫll ok skóga.
Síðan varð, es slósk í ferðir,
sangran ill ok þunt of stangir;
eiðar rufusk við Inga bróður;
engi vildi fylgja lengra.

text prose order

 

Skúli’s retainers were bloated from boasting; they hardly retreated while the belly was full; those heroes from Denmark drank; they hardly dragged themselves through mountains and forests. Then it happened, when campaigns began, that there were bad complaints and few around the standard poles; oaths were broken to {Ingi’s brother}; [= Skúli] no one wished to follow further.

context: In the autumn of 1236, many of Skúli Bárðarson’s retainers have joined Hákon, who is on his way from Bergen north to Trondheim to meet Skúli and try to settle their disagreements. Skúli leaves Trondheim and intends to travel by land south across the mountains. When he comes to Rennebu, many of his sworn men and retainers leave him. Then this st. is spoken.
