[1-2] søkkvi Sveins ‘the queller of Sveinn [= Magnús]’: Lit. ‘sinker of Sveinn’. A highly specific kenning, which neatly anticipates the flight of Sveinn Álfífuson from Norway on the arrival of Magnús, reported in st. 4. Similarly, sonar leifs ‘of the son of Óláfr’ in ll. 3-4 may presage Magnús’s recovery of his father’s realm in st. 4.
