[8] sómi skjómi: skjómi sómi Tˣ, ‘so[…] ok skíomí’ B, ‘somi ok skíomí’ 744ˣ
[8] sómi (m.) ‘honour’: Cf. also sómr ‘seemly one’, a heiti for ‘bow’ (Þul Boga l. 4). Neither of these heiti is found in Old Norse poetry, but sómi is found as a heiti for ‘sword’ in the rímur (Finnur Jónsson 1926-8: sómi).
