Cite as: Margaret Clunies Ross (ed.) 2017, ‘Ǫrvar-Odds saga 99 (Ǫrvar-Oddr, Ævidrápa 29)’ in Margaret Clunies Ross (ed.), Poetry in fornaldarsögur. Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages 8. Turnhout: Brepols, p. 910.
notes: This stanza appears to relate to the same incident as Oddr boasts about in his mannjafnaðr ‘comparison of men’ with Sigurðr and Sjólfr (Ǫrv 44/1-4), while the second half of Ǫrv 44 covers the same incident as Ǫrv 100 (see below). In both cases there is mention of six ships, described as hábrynjuð ‘armoured’ in 44/3 and the encounter is said to take place off an otherwise unknown headland named Hólmsnes, which is not mentioned in the prose text. It is assumed that the use of the adj. ho(r)ska ‘wise’ (l. 3) and the cpd snyrtidrengr ‘fine fellow’ (l. 7) is intended to be ironic.
