Errors and anomalies noted by transcriber:
A few paragraph-ending periods (full stops) have been supplied.
The author omitted vowel modifiers and diacritics from all names in
the body text: Hakon, Malar, Mjolnir. The footnotes are generally more
linguistically precise.
The name “Svanhild/Swanhild” is spelled “Swanhild” in the body text,
“Svanhild” in the Vocabulary (all occurrences) and Index. The spelling
“skees” is used consistently.
Ambiguous stanzas in verse:
The king saw
...
’Round his house.
...
Struck to the ground.
...
With blows and wounds.
_page break after “his house”; no stanza break in printed text until
after “blows and wounds”_
Typographical errors (all from “Notes”, Vocabulary and Index):
a great sea goes into / Njorvasound
Footnote 102: Njorvasound ...
_spelling as in original: should probably be “Njorvasund”_
Chapter VI of Ynglinga / Saga
_text reads “Ynglingla”_
the much-traveled man, the / ἀνὴρ πολύτροπος
_text reads “πολύθροπος”_
the valkyrie says / at berserkja reiðu vil ek þik spyrja

identical in root with Lat. _divus_; / Sansk. _dwas_
_so in original; the Sanskrit is usually given as “dyaus”_
Zalmoxis, derived from the Gr. Ζαλμός, helmet
_so in original. Ζαλμός is defined by Liddell and Scott--
a dictionary available to the author-- as Thracian for “a skin.”_
Compare the Greek word νεφέλη = mist.
_text reads “νεφέλγ”_
and then cooly says to him
_spelling as in original_
Through this he / slipt.
_variant spelling in original_
He impersonated all that was good and holy
_text reads “al”_
This chapter of _Skaldskaparmal_
_text reads “Skaldkaparmal”_
Echoes from Mistland; Echoes from Mist-Land
_inconsistent forms in original_
