    Inn vari gestur
    er til verðar kemur
    þunnu hljóði þegir,
    eyrum hlýðir,
    en augum skoðar.
    Svo nýsist fróðra hver fyrir.
       The knowing guest
       who goes to the feast,
       In silent attention sits;
       With his ears he hears,
       with his eyes he watches,
       Thus wary are wise men all.
