Note to Anon Mhkv 10III

[5] of: Correct use of the expletive particle; see also sts 13/1, 19/7, 28/5 and Introduction above. Fidjestøl (1989b) largely confirms the conclusion of Kuhn (1929a) that the of-um particle is used with declining frequency between C9th and C13th; if so, Mhkv and Bjbp JómsI, not to mention Þry, are exceptional.
