[7-8]: Ms. 203ˣ has the words men ‘necklace’ and meyju ‘girl’ reversed (which produces the same meaning), but R715ˣ’s garbled version suggests the order presented here, which has the additional advantages of being metrically better and supported by the pattern of the previous two lines. The emendation is also made by Skj B, Skald, FSGJ and Edd. Min.
