Note to Anon Alpost 12VII

[6-7] ást prýdda listum ‘love adorned with virtues’: The parallel phrasing of 6/5: postuli prýddr af listum ‘Apostle adorned with virtues’ and 11/4 postuli hlaðinn af kostum ‘the Apostle filled with virtues’ perhaps suggests that prýdda is miswritten for prýddr (or prýddur?), modifying postulinn (l. 6): ‘the Apostle adorned with virtues, accomplishments’.
