“Gripir the name | of the chieftain good
Who holds the folk | and the firm-ruled land.”
Sigurth spake:
[a]2]. “Is the king all-knowing | now within,
Will the monarch come | with me to speak?
A man unknown | his counsel needs,
And Gripir fain | I soon would find.”
Geitir spake:
[3]. “The ruler glad | of Geitir will ask
Who seeks with Gripir | speech to have.”
