Note to Anon Sól 81VII
[4] Sólarljóð ‘Songs of the Sun’: The n. ljóð is indicated as pl. here by the verb munu (l. 5), though st. 83 understands it as sg. Naming the poem in the closing or penultimate st., and the injunction to take its lessons to heart are paralleled in Hsv 148 and 149 and Hávm 164. Has 64 and Leið 44, as Paasche (1914a, 162) points out, also name the poem in the second to last st., as does Lil, leaving the final st. for a valedictory prayer.
