de Villa Dei (fl. 1200). This is also in Hand 9 and was copied
down possibly between 1306 and 1308 (Gunnar Harðarson and
Stefán Karlsson 1993, 271).
What is now the thirteenth quire consists of eight leaves.
93r: The rest of • Algorismus
This is also in Hand 9, written at the same time as the first part
of Algorismus.
93r–100v: • Eiríks saga rauða from the beginning of the saga
through the middle of ch. 11
93r through 99r, line 14, are in Hand 9, and folios 99r, line 14, •
through 100r, line 2, are in Haukr’s hand. 100r, line 3, through
101r is in Hand 13 (“the second Icelandic secretary”). The saga
was possibly copied down between 1306 and 1308 (Gunnar
Harðarson and Stefán Karlsson 1993, 271).
What is now the fourteenth quire consists of seven leaves. The
first is a singleton, and the remaining six are three bifolia. There is
no reason to think that the first leaf was originally a singleton, and
Finnur Jónsson (1892–1896, xi) believed that originally it was one
half of a bifolium, but the other half was blank and was eventually
cut off.
101r–101v: The rest of • Eiríks saga rauða
Folio 101v is in Haukr’s hand (Gunnar Harðarson 1995, 41). •
The rest was written by another Icelander. The genealogies at
the end of the saga include Haukr’s title of herra (sir), so this
folio must have been written no earlier than 1306, when Haukr
was knighted (Jón Helgason 1960, xxi).
101v–104v: • Skálda saga
This is in Haukr’s hand and was possibly copied down between
1306 and 1308 (Gunnar Harðarson and Stefán Karlsson 1993,
271).
104v–105r: • Þáttr af Upplendinga konungum
This is also in Haukr’s hand, with the same date as for Skálda
saga.
105r–107v: • Ragnarssona þáttr
This is also in Haukr’s hand, with the same date as for Skálda
saga.
