[All]: This stanza in 590b-cˣ is fourteen lines long, twelve in 152, where ll. 9-10 are missing. It can easily be seen how additional lines, describing the attack on Herþjófr and his borg, could have been added to an originally eight-lined stanza; alternatively, what the mss have may be a slightly shortened version of two original stanzas. There is a close correspondence between the wording of the stanza and the immediately preceding prose account.
