[2]: Á þik vili drekka is the reading of the B redaction mss. The text of the A mss is inconsistent, but may allude to the women of Baldrshagi situated east of where the men now are on their Orkney voyage. Skj B presents the following text of ll. 1-2: Erat sem ekkja | austr á þik drekki … ‘It is not as if a woman is drinking to you in the east …’.
