St. 51

p. 21, l. 582-4. We meet with this description twice more in the poem, ll. 1514-16, and ll. 1858-60.

St. 56

p. 23, l. 640. On the meaning of theff, cf. Kölbing’s note to Am. and Amil., l. 787.

St. 58

p. 24, l. 659. of Perowne is certainly wrong, as it does not agree with the rhymes stere, nere, fere; but I don’t know how to amend the line.

p. 24, l. 662. schere gives no meaning; I write stere and translate, There might nobody move further, i.e. the giant was brought to a standstill in the glen.

p. 24, l. 665. Cf. ll. 434, 791.
