Note to Sturl Hryn 16II

[5] þurðu víða ‘raced far and wide’: 81a has the reading þorðu vinda ‘dared to turn’ which is possible but clearly secondary. G is the only ms. which has the reading þurðu víða ‘raced far and wide’. F also has þurðu, E, 81a and 8 þorðu ‘dared’, and Flat has snuddu, 3rd pers. pl. pret. indic. of the verb snyðja ‘speed’. Þurðu is the pret. of the verb þyrja ‘sweep, rush along’.
