Note to Anon (TGT) 30III
[All]: Here metonymy occurs in the use of bleikr ‘pale’ as the effect of being afraid, the cause (TGT 1927, 78): Hér er bleikr kallaðr hræddr, þvíat bliknan kemr eptir hræzlu sem roði eptir skǫmm ok er framfæring máls milli bleiks ok óttafulls, en óeiginlig líking, þvíat bliknan heyrir til líkams en hræzla til andar ‘Here “pale” is used for “afraid,” because paleness comes from fear just as blushing from shame and there is transfer of meaning between pale and fearful, but it is an improper comparison because paleness belongs to the body and fear to the mind’.
