[1-4]: Finnur Jónsson (Skj B) emends ms. ‘morgum’ (l. 3) to mǫrgu, agreeing with korni (l. 1), and translates Kristus såde dér mangt et udmærket frøkorn (= korni ... lista, ll. 1-2) ‘Christ sowed there many an excellent seed’. Kock (NN §1717) retains the ms. reading, but takes mǫrgum with sóma (l. 4) and renders ll. 3-4: Denna stad med mycken heder bar den härligaste frukt ‘This city with great honour bore the most glorious fruit’. He takes lista korn (ll. 1-2) to mean kunskapssäden ‘the seed of knowledge’.
