[3] Váfaðar þingþrøngvir ‘compeller of the assembly of Váfuðr <= Óðinn> [(lit. ‘Váfuðr’s assembly-compeller’) BATTLE > WARRIOR]’: If the reading of U, þings ‘of the assembly’, is adopted, tmesis can be avoided (þrøngvir þings Váfaðar ‘the compeller of the assembly of Váfuðr’, see NN §2008H), but that reading is not supported by the other ms. witnesses. For the Óðinn-name Váfuðr, see Note to Þul Óðins 5/7.
