Summary

The bard tells of his brother who was 63 when he emigrated. He wishes he had stayed in the Dells cultivating the land. He thinks of him among tribes who do not know of his religion, and expresses regret that he cannot see him again. The brothers cannot communicate as they cannot read or write.
