Note to Arn Hryn 12II
[1] skjǫldungr ‘king’: Lit.’ descendant of Skjǫldr’: Skjǫldungr is assumed here to be the primary reading, and mildingr the secondary one, since mildingr could have entered the SnE tradition through influence of the similar l. mildingr fór of munka veldi lit. ‘the generous one went through the monks’ empire’ in Mark Eirdr 10/5, 6.
