[3]: There is a twofold problem with this line. (a) The mss’ word order must be changed to produce a metrically regular line with alliteration in positions 2 and 5, and (b) the p. p. ‘ofnan’ (1824b) or ‘ofnann’ (147) must be emended to ofinn ‘woven’, m. acc. sg. p. p. of vefa ‘weave’, agreeing with and qualifying serk ‘shirt’ in l. 1, as do inn síða ‘the long’ and saumaðan ‘sewn’ in ll. 1 and 2.
