[All]: Cf. DGB 116 (Reeve and Wright 2007, 155.202; cf. Wright 1988, 110, prophecy 44): et ipsum totum deuorabit ‘and will eat him whole’ (cf. Reeve and Wright 2007, 154). Here the usurping fox, disguised as the wolf, consumes the boar-king: Geoffrey’s animal symbolism is rationalised in Merl. Gunnlaugr also elaborates on the establishment of the truce, both here and in the preceding stanza.
