[6-8] nú eru upp talið heiti ámáttligra jǫtna ‘now the names of mighty giants have been enumerated’: In an attempt to merge Þul Jǫtna I and Þul Jǫtna II, this concluding formula has been omitted in mss A and B and transferred to the last stanza of the second þula of giants’ names (Þul Jǫtna II st. 3). In its place, the first two lines of Þul Jǫtna II (enn eru eptir | jǫtna heiti ‘still there are names of giants to come’) have been added after l. 6.
