[2, 3, 4] menn legs mœrar fjarðeplis ‘the men of the lair of the land of the fjord-apple [STONE > MOUNTAINS > CAVE > GIANTS]’: This extended kenning, first suggested by Finnur Jónsson (1900b, 396), is superior to other arrangements and interpretations of these kenning elements (e.g. NN §464; Kiil 1956, 147).
