Annotation
A commentary on the first half of the sixth verse of Höfuðlausn. Dodge supports Jón Þorkelsson’s interpretation of firða fit as signifying ‘battle array’, arguing that this reading is more artistically appropriate than Per Sörensson’s ‘men’s feet/knees’. He also proposes ‘spear din’ as a better interpretation of fleina hnit than ‘spear thursts’.
Lýsing
Athugaemd við fyrri hluta sjöttu vísu Höfuðlausnar. Dodge er sammála Jóni Þorkelssyni um að firða fit merki bardagaflokkur og telur að þessi túlkun sé frá listrænu sjónarmiði skárri en sú túlkun Pers Sörensson að það eigi við um fætur eða hné manna. Hann telur að spjótahríð sé betri túlkun á fleina hnit en spjótalag.
