Note to ESk Sigdr I 2II

[2, 3] ól ǫnd ‘nourished his spirit’: This is usually taken in the meaning ‘stayed’, but in this case it could also have a more spiritual implication because, even at such an early date, Sigurðr would probably have visited the shrine of the Apostle James the Great in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia. For James the Great, see Anon Alpost 5VII.
