This stanza (
Eþver Lv 1) shares with the sole
lausavísa of Einarr’s father Eyjólfr (
EValg Lv) a concern for the integrity of Iceland; it is dated to c. 1024 in
Skj. It is preserved as an interpolation to
ÓH ch. 114 in ms. 61; a text in
761bˣ is copied from there and therefore of no independent value.
