Group D includes the adaptations of the Vaticinium and Amici story into the poem Vinaspegill. The earliest extant manuscript was written between 1738-1758; others between 1700-1900 - the latest manuscript being from as late as 1925. Most of those that we know of were written in the 19th century which coincides with the time Vinaspegill got printed. Seelow mentions three prints, the earliest of them printed in Reykjavík in 1845 (Kvæðið Vina-Spegill, orkt af Guðmundi Bergþóssyni, Rekjavík 1845). According to this print, the poem consists of 113 stanzas and the text is close to its prose source (see Seelow 1989: 216). The other prints are:
- Vinaspegill og Tólfsona-kvæði. Söguljóð ort af Guðmundi Bergþóssyni, Reykjavík 1904.
- Vinaspegill, tólfsona-kvæði og annáls-kvæði. Söguljóð, Reykjavík 1909.
