The Squire's Tale

[Sandshark]

Marginalia: Ástvinur

Scrawled in the corner of the original manuscript is a Vanirhallan poem, expressing the incomparable feeling of comforting one's love after a long time parted.
Comparing with the original, one of the words has been replaced.

Stóðu vit tvau í túni,
Tók Chas um mik sínum
Höndum haukligt kvendi
Hárfögr ok griet sáran;
Titt flugu tár af tróðu,
Til segir hugr um vilja,
Strauk drifhvítum dúki
Drós um hvarminn ljósa.
