Note to Anon Liðs 3I

[7] glóða Rínar ‘the embers of the Rhine [GOLD]’: The coward misses out on expeditionary plunder, here stereotypically represented as gold, though in fact the chief means of enrichment for Scandinavian warriors in the English campaigns took the form of the silver pennies paid as ‘Danegeld’.
