Anon (TGT) 4III/1 — heima ‘at home’

Geima mærum heima.

Mærum geima heima.

We praise the sea at home.

readings

[1] heima: so B, hríma A, heimi W

notes

[1] heima ‘at home’: Ms. B’s reading is chosen by earlier eds for the aðalhending with geima. Heima may also be acc. or gen. pl. of m. heimr ‘home’. Ms. W’s reading heimi (dat. sg. of heimr) also supplies aðalhending and W normally has better readings than B. However, heimi is not normally used in the sense ‘at home’ without a prep.
