Note to ÞSkall Valfl 2II

[4] í tryggð ‘under safe-conduct’: After having joined the second conspiracy against William, Waltheof repented and threw himself on William’s mercy. William had first been inclined to show leniency, but after he returned to England, he captured Waltheof and threw him in prison (see Scott 1952, 205-6).
