Kari Ellen Gade 2009, ‘Other metres and mixed metres’ in Kari Ellen Gade (ed.), Poetry from the Kings’ Sagas 2: From c. 1035 to c. 1300. Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages 2. Turnhout: Brepols [check printed volume for citation].
Other metres that are attested sporadically in the corpus of poetry edited in SkP II are hálfhneppt ‘half-curtailed’ (see Technical Terms at the front of this volume) and a variant of inn skammi háttr ‘the short verse form’, a metre in which the odd lines are in fornyrðislag, and the even lines consist of two short-stemmed disyllabic words bearing internal rhyme (see Anon (HSig) 5, which does not have internal rhyme, however). In some informal poetry the lines display features of more than one metre, such as the lausavísur of Magnús inn góði Óláfsson (Mgóð Lv 1, c. 1046; fornyrðislag, málaháttr and hálfhnept), Haraldr harðráði Sigurðarson (Hharð Lv 2, c. 1046; hálfhnept and fornyrðislag) and Sigurðr slembidjákn Magnússon (Slembir Lv, c. 1038-9; fornyrðislag and tøglag).
