Note to SnSt Ht 29III

[1, 2] tvær ... heimsvistir ‘two ... home-visits’: So all other mss. The R reading, ‘heims vist er’, is syntactically unclear and a line was later added between the last two words (R*). During his stay in mainland Scandinavia (1218-20), Snorri also visited magnates in Sweden, among them the lawman Áskell Magnússon and his wife, Kristín (see Stu 1878, I, 238). He stayed at the Norwegian court before (in Tønsberg) and after (in Bergen) his other travels.
