Anon Sól 78VII/5 — ór ‘out’

Arfi, faðir        einn ek ráðit hefi,
        ok þeir Sólkötlu synir
hjartarhorn,        þat er ór haugi bar
        inn vitri Vígdvalinn.

Arfi, ek einn, faðir, ok þeir synir Sólkötlu, hefi ráðit hjartarhorn, þat er inn vitri Vígdvalinn bar ór haugi.

Heir, I alone, the father, and the sons of Sólkatla, have interpreted the hart’s horn which the wise Vígdvalinn carried out of the burial mound.

readings

[5] ór: so papp15ˣ, 214ˣ, 1441ˣ, 10575ˣ, 2797ˣ, om. 166bˣ, vor 738ˣ, 167b 6ˣ

notes

[5] ór haugi ‘out of the burial mound’: The scribe of 166bˣ may have had an exemplar which omitted ór, thus causing confusion about the following word.
