   • c. 850, Þjóðólfr of Hvinir, Ynglingatal, stanza 11:

     Vasa þat bært, / at Bera skyldi
     valsǿfendr / vígs of hvetja,
     þá’s brǿðr tveir / at bǫnum urðusk
     óþurfendr / of afbrýði.
     

     It was not right, that Bera should incite the slaughters of the slain [WARRIORS] to fight, when the two brothers became each other’s banemen, needlessly, out of jealousy.
