"Hirðmaður" is courtier [der Hofmann]

Hrút'ur asks for being appointed courtier. > Hirðvist.
The second day after.
He minded [hugði> Hug'a] throughly the man ....
What urged [hvatti] you ...
"mun eg yðvar verða við að njóta að eg fái rétt af."
mun eg verða: I must probably (like his memory)
að njóta við yðvar: to benefit from your presence

"Sóm'a" "ómar" as genally most appropriate >suitable.
"vel skipað" (position) well constituted/ appointed
"framgjarn" I smell ambitious or aspiring.
"eager" or "keen" are to juicy to be fitting I reckon.
