The following entry has been hand-corrected once.

skapt-hár, observe, -- we suspect that in the phrase 'skapthá sól,' of the sun just after sunrise, is concealed another sense; it is not 'spear-high,' but akin to A.S. sceaft-mond = half a foot, or six inches, meaning the moment when the sun has got just half a foot above the hills; the definition given by the ancients themselves in K.Þ.K. 96 is artificial and can hardly be etymologically true; the word was perhaps borrowed from the A.S., and so the old Icelanders themselves did not quite understand it; cp. the phrase, ganga skapta-muninn, to walk just, half a pace, Lv. 35 (see skapt I. 2. at the end).

The following entry has been hand-corrected once.

stjarna, at the end, I, -- the names in the old lay Sdm. 15 and beginning of 16 are, we believe, astronomical, -- the 'Ear of Árvak,' the 'Hoof of Alsvinn' (the Sun Horses), the 'Wheel under the Chariot of Rungnir,' the 'Teeth (or Reins) of Sleipnir,' the 'Sledge Harness,' the 'Bear's Paw,' the 'Tongue of Bragi,' the 'Wolf's Claws,' the 'Eagle's Nose,' and perhaps others. &FINGER; The Cod. Reg. l.c. reads 'Rungnis,' the Völ. S. 'Rögnis,' i.e. Odin, for Hrungnir the giant would here be out of question, see Bugge's foot-note to l.c.
