Original:
v.Hav.35
Ganga skal,
skala gestr vera
ey í einum stað;
ljúfr verðr leiðr
ef lengi sitr
annars fletjum á.
A guest must depart again on his way,
Nor stay in the same place ever;
If he bide too long on another’s bench,
The loved one soon becomes loathed.
Dr. Seuss style:
A guest must go, can't stay, oh no,
New paths to tread and places to grow;
If he sits too long on another's chair,
The once-beloved becomes a bear.
