[1] við Elfi ‘at the Götaälv (Elfr)’: The reading í ‘in’ is found in Flat, H-Hr, and most Fsk mss (52ˣ exceptionally having við, fol. 81r), and it is retained in the eds of those works listed above. It would presumably refer to the region around the river in Västergötland, but við ‘at’ or ‘by’ is preferable.
