Let's see . . . I think . . . yes, I think I can make out one of the lines from the runestone! It reads:
So Sven says to Ole, he says, "Hey, Ole! You better come down from dere right now, doncha know!" . . .

Oh, now I like this part!
Ten thousand Swedes
Ran through the weeds,
Chased by one Norwegian.
He smelled so bad,
They sure were glad
When they had left his region.
