Note to Anon Pét 35^VII

[7-8] eilífr andi hans, að guð hlífir án enda ‘his eternal soul which God protects without end’: Both Finnur Jónsson and Kock merely paraphrase l. 8: Skj B, om at den evige gud beskytter (os) ‘that the eternal God may protect (us)’; NN §1738 evigt är hos Gud vårt skydd ‘is eternally with God our protection’. Að is more likely the rel. particle here (cf. Kahle 1898, 111; sts 10/8, 11/6, 36/4, and Notes). That að might alternatively introduce an appositive cl., and andi might be a scribal error for anda (dat. sg.) is a more remote possibility (= að eilífr guð hlífir anda hans án enda ‘[the consolation ...] that eternal God protects his soul without end’).
