“Es Víga-Óbívan Kvæggansson hér á skipi þessu? Eða hvar es hann?” kvað Leia.
“Is Slayer Obiwan Kvaeggan’s son here on this ship? Where is he?” said Leia.
“Komtu með mik nú,” segir Lúkr, “Af því at hermenninir monu finna okkr
snart.”
“Come with me now,” says Luke, “because the warriors will find us quickly.”
Es þau Leia stíga ýr rúmi sínu, stóðu nær margir hermenn þeir es skutu ǫrum

When they (Luke and) Leia climb out of her room, nearby stood those many
warriors who shot arrows at them.

“Mér sýnisk,” segir Leia konungsdóttir Hólmgǫngu-Hana, “At þú hefir

“Seems to me,” says Leia, daughter of (the) king to Duel Han, “That you have
hindered our means of escape,

because we cannot escape, unless through that door where Stormtroopers
stand.”
“Vildirðu heldr sitja í rúmi þínu í dýflissu, konungsdóttir?” spyrr
Hólmgǫngu-Hani.
“Would you rather sit in your room in (the) dungeon, Princess?” asks Duel
Han.
“Gjarna þat,” segir Leia, “Heldr an at deyja.”
“That gladly,” says Leia, “Rahter than die.”

R2 asks him, who stood on the Falcon, whether he noticed another means of
escape which they (Leia and) Luke were able to go (through).
Artú svaraði, at hann þekkti øngva aðra undarferð.
R2 answered that he noticed no other means of escape.
Hólmgǫngu-Hani spurði at tíðendum. Lúkr sagði honum frá þessu.
Duel Han asked the news. Luke told him of this.
“En ek fæ eigi alla þá drepna,” segir Hólmgǫngu-Hani, “Hvat skulum vér
gøra?”
“But I am not able to kill them all,” says Duel Han, “What shall we do?”
“Mælisk sjá frjǭlsun eigi vel fyr yðr,” kvað Leia konungsdóttir, “Af því, at

“This rescue does not speak well for you,” said Princess Leia, “Because ye

you were slain here.”
