Hauks heiti — Þul Hauks^III

Elena Gurevich 2017, ‘ Anonymous, Hauks heiti’ in Kari Ellen Gade and Edith Marold (eds), Poetry from Treatises on Poetics. Skaldic Poetry of the Scandinavian Middle Ages 3. Turnhout: Brepols, p. 940. <https://skaldic.org/m.php?p=text&i=3237> (accessed 26 April 2024)

This þula (Þul Hauks) is recorded in mss A and B (and 744ˣ) of Skm (SnE). It contains heiti for ‘hawk’ and is the first of five þulur (all given in one block), which enumerate terms for birds (the other are Þul Hrafns, Þul Hana, Þul Ara and Þul Fugla). In both mss, the þula has the heading Hauks heiti ‘Names for hawk’ (in A, as usual, written in red ink). In the þulur-sequence, the list of Hauks heiti is preceded by Þul Hesta and followed by Þul Hrafns. Neither LaufE nor RE 1665 include sections with heiti for ‘hawk’.
