Snarr siklingr réð {beðju Þundar} þría vetr ok sjautøgu, áðr * {einkadóttir ǫðlings} kom at ræna lofðung lífi.
The brave lord ruled {the bedmate of Þundr <= Óðinn>} [= Jǫrð (jǫrð ‘earth’)] for three and seventy years, before {the only daughter of the chieftain [Loptr] <= Loki>} [= Hel (hel ‘death’)] came to rob the ruler of his life.
Mss: Flat(144va)
Readings: [4] sjautøgu: sjautigi Flat [5] áðr *: áðr an Flat
Editions: Skj: [Anonyme digte og vers XII], [2]. Nóregs konunga-tal 9: AI, 580, BI, 576, Skald I, 279, NN §§2119, 2272, 3396V; Flat 1860-8, II, 521.
Notes: [All]: The reign of Haraldr is given variously as seventy years (so Íslb, ÍF 1, 6; Theodoricus, MHN 6; Ágr, ÍF 29, 6-7) or seventy-three years (so HN, MHN 104; ÓH 1941, 8; HhárfHkr, ÍF 26, 146-7; Fsk, ÍF 29, 74). The latter number includes the three years when Haraldr ruled jointly with his son, Eiríkr blóðøx (see Ólafía Einarsdóttir 1964, 174-7). — [1, 2] réð beðju Þundar ‘ruled the bedmate of Þundr <= Óðinn> [= Jǫrð (jǫrð ‘earth’)]’: For the imagery of a ruler taking or governing the land (represented by a kenning for the earth conceived of as a woman), see sts 17, 23 and 42 below. See also Hfr HákdrIII, Notes to ÞjóðA Sex 3/3 and 3/6 and Frank 1978, 63-5. — [4] sjautøgu ‘seventy’: The indeclinable form sjautigi (so Flat) is late (see ANG §450). — [5] áðr * ‘before’: The particle an (so Flat) in the connective áðr an ‘before’ has been deleted for metrical reasons here and passim. The ms. uses áðr and áðr an interchangeably, and the latter makes the l. hypermetrical. — [7, 8] einkadóttir ǫðlings ‘the only daughter of the chieftain [Loptr] <= Loki> [= Hel (hel ‘death’)]’: This must be a kenning for Hel ‘death’, Loki’s daughter, but the construction is obscure. In the present edn einkadóttir ǫðlings is treated as an ofljóst ‘too transparent’ construction: the chieftain alluded to must be Loptr Sæmundarson, Jón Loptsson’s father, as Loptr is another name for Loki (see LP: Loptr). Skj B replaces lofðung ‘lord’ (l. 5) with Loka and reads áðr Loka | lífi at ræna | ǫðlings kom | einkadóttir ‘before Loki’s only daughter came to steal the chieftain’s life’. Loka makes the l. unmetrical, however. Kock emends ǫðlings to the otherwise unattested andljúgs ‘the one who lies in return’ (NN §2272) or andstyggs ‘the evil one’ (NN §2119), i.e. ‘Loki’.
