Hail and hearken kin of clan and kingdomFame travels far of deeds this thegn has done. See:Stick-stung by quick-rained blows are foes lain low,Crow-fodder behind Arnoddr i Oenglesey.
At Bretland on wind-horse came this Íslendingur ages pastBested many, nested snug, built hilltop homeDug roots in resting-place, guards hearth and family steadfastYet hammers still on helms. 
Hord-weard sees what kensmen knew Pleased to raise and claim ring-keeper trueKing names this sword entwined to kingdom’s foldGlad blade of red in fray and mind’s-worth gold.
Atlantia on day of Gate’s DefenseGains much, as does Arnoddr. Hence White-girded walks this knight and peerBright-joined man and kingdom hold each the other dear.
Thus Eckehard Rex and Jane Regina do induct Arnoddr i Ongulseyju into the Order of Chivalry and secure him letters patent: Per saltire vert and purpure, a bordure Or. Done this 26th day of March, Anno Societatis LVI
