[All]: Cf. DGB 116 (Reeve and Wright 2007, 151.145-6; cf. Wright 1988, 107, prophecy 30): Cucullati ad nuptias prouocabuntur, et clamor eorum in montibus Alpium audietur ‘The wearers of cowls will be challenged to marry, and their complaint will be heard in the mountains of the Alps’ (Reeve and Wright 2007, 150). The comment about widows appears to be Gunnlaugr’s innovation.
