Rauðgrani taldi heiðni ok forneskju fyrir mǫnnum Gests, ok taldi þat bezt at blóta til heilla sér.

Raudgrani related heathendom and ancient practice to the men of Gest, and said it was best to sacrifice for one's luck.

Gestrinn svarar: "Ǫgvaldr var konungr ok hermaðr mikill. Hann blótaði mest kú eina, ok hafði hana með sér hvar sem hann fór, á sjá eðr landi. Þótt honum heilsamligt at drekka jafnan mjǫlk hennar. Ok er sá orðskviðr þaðan er margir hafa, at allt skal fara saman karl ok kýr."

Óláfs saga Tryggvasonar (AM 61 fol manuscript, normalised orthography)

The guest answers: "Ǫgvaldr was a king and a great warrior. He foremost worshipped a single cow and had her with him whereever he travelled, on sea or on land. He thought it wholesome to constantly be drinking her milk, and thereof is the saying which many know, that 'man and cow should always go together.'
