[5] dunðu (3rd pers. pl. pret. indic.) ‘resounded’: Dunði (3rd pers. sg. pret. indic.) ‘resounded’ has been emended to the pl. to agree with the pl. subject dǫrr ‘spears’. It is unlikely that the forms ‘dor’ and ‘daur’ could represent the sg. darr ‘spear’ orthographically, whereas the final syllable in ‘dunde’ (so both mss) could well reflect Norwegian vowel reduction in final syllables (-u > -e; see Note to st. 74/5-8 and Hl 1941, 110). For the loss of final -r in ‘dor/daur’, see Note to st. 5/2.
