[1] Hreggskornis: hreggskornum C
[1] hreggskornis ‘of storm-cleaver <eagle>’: Given as a heiti for ‘eagle’ in Skm and Þul Ara l. 4 (see Note there and Meissner 123). In the present context it must be part of a kenning whose now-lost base-word was possibly governed by the prep. handa ‘for’ (see the next Note).
