This is my first real attempt at translation in Old
Norse as I am still sketchy with the grammar but here
is my shot at it.
Ok n� fara �eir �tan he�an,
And now they travel henceforth out,
ok fersk �eim vel,
and they traveled well,
ok var Au�un of vetrinn eptir me� ��ri st�rimanni;
and Audun was with Thori the captain until after the
winter;
hann �tti b� � Moeri.
He owns a dwelling on Moeri.
Ok um sumarit eptir fara �eir �t til Groenlands,
And if after summer they travel forth to Greenland,
ok eru �ar of vetrinn
and remained there for winter
�ess er vi� getit,
at Au�un kaupir �ar bjarnd�ri eitt,
there Audun bought a bear,
g�rsimi mikla,
a great treasure,
ok gaf fyrir alla eigu s�na.
and gave before they had completely taken possession
of it
Ok n� of sumarit eptir fara �eir aptr til N�regs,
And now after summer they go back to Norway,
ok ver�a vel rei�fara.
and good passage had taken place.
