It should be bome in mind that it is not so important here whether a
reading is original in the saga as such, but whether it is original in the
B-redaction to which y and 463/560 belong. For instance, it is improb-
able that the words of the last example, ch. 27,28 sem ketti, were in the
saga from the beginning, but as they were undoubtedly in the B-arche-
type (they are in y, 8, and W) they must have been left out in [x =]
463/560.
On the other hånd, there is no hiding the faet that 463 and 560 are oc-
casionally supported by other B-manuscripts, especially fragment 8:
21,17 ferpar sinnar at van5a y, til fer5ar sinnar at vanda sinum W, ferSa sinna 8, til ferdar 463/560.
22,36 22,43 25,76 minna y W, fera 8, færra 463/560. fyrstr y, fyrst W, fyrst manna 8, fyrstur manna 463/560. re5v opt vm (om. W) me5 ser hvem af skylldi taka y W, reddv opt vm ra8ager5 sina 8, Ræddu (+ pa 560) med sier huad til Rada (rads 560) skylldi taka 463/560.
