[All]: This couplet and that following were clearly produced by the author of FoGT (or by someone else at his request) to provide Icelandic examples of hypallage, a figure that is rare or absent in skaldic poetry. Évrard of Béthune’s Graecismus (Wrobel 1887, 5, l. 39) offers the example trade rati ventos ‘give winds to the boat’, and a similarly nautical example appears in Isidore of Seville’s Etymologiae (Isidore, Etym. 1.36.22), dare classibus Austros ‘to give south winds to the fleets’ (Virgil Aeneid III, 61).
