For a discussion of the metre, see Hl 1941, 125-6 and Note to SnSt Ht 40 [All]. — The stanza commemorates the Hjaðningavíg ‘battle of the Hjaðningar’ between the troops of Heðinn and Hǫgni, father of the abducted Hildr (see SnE 1998, I, 72-3, Saxo 2005, I, 5, 8, 3-5 and 9, 1, pp. 338-43 and Sörla þáttr in Flat 1860-8, I, 275-83).
