context: According to the prose that follows this stanza, it contains examples of the construction stuðning ‘support’ (the addition of intensifying prefixes to adjectives in sannkenning-constructions). That construction appears to be exemplified only in the first half-stanza, however (see SnE 2007, 49 and Note to [All] below). In TGT, the four lines (ll. 3-6) are given as two separate couplets with a brief prose link, and the intensifying adjectives are examples of epithets (epitheton) from the spiritual (ll. 3-4) and corporeal (ll. 5-6) spheres.
notes: The adjectives illustrating stuðning are óðharða ‘terribly hard’ (l. 1), fullhvǫtum ‘very brave’ (l. 2) and ofrhugaðr ‘high-mettled’ (l. 4). — In SnE the headings read as follows: studningar v. ‘supports, five’ (Tˣ), tvíriðit ‘twice-twisted’ (U(47r)). — In TGT both couplets are attributed to Snorri Sturluson.
