notes
[6] beinn (m.) ‘holly’: A hap. leg. The heiti is either a variant of beinviðr ‘holly’ (see l. 8 below and ÍO: beinn 1) or derived from the adj. beinn ‘straight’ (see AEW: beinn 1). The B variant ‘basinn’ is not attested elsewhere (Finnur Jónsson 1917, 190), but cf. New Norw. bas, base ‘bushes, underbrush’ (< Gmc *basīna-; see ÍO: basinn). The LaufE mss have baun ‘bean’, which appears to be a lectio facilior but could indicate that the A variant is corrupt as well.
