[1] dœtr Hlés ‘the daughters of Hlér <= Ægir> [WAVES]’: If this kenning is the subject of blésu ‘blew’, the personification presumably extends to the idea of wind-swept waves, beating upon the ship’s side. Hlér is an alternative name for the sea-giant Ægir (SnE 1998, I, 1): Einn maðr er nefndr Ægir eða Hlér ‘There was a person called Ægir or Hlér’.
