8. Sirach 15:1.
9. Tobit 4:19.
10. Jerome, Commentariorum in evangelium Matthæi III. The passage also
appears in, for example, Venerable Bede, In Marci evangelium expositio
III, and Hrabanus Maurus, Commentariorum in Matthæum VI.47
11. From Eberhard of Béthune’s Græcismus. The “fla” and “fra” are
not complete words but morphemes whose underlying meanings
Eberhard is attempting to elucidate, as is made clear by the line
which follows: “Ignis enim flagrat, sed poma recentia fragrant.”48
13. The beginning (“Quicumque vult salvus esse...”) and end (“...salvus
esse non poterit”) are those of the Athanasian Creed. The middle
is less theologically orthodox. Given the reference to a taberna, the
parody can scarcely be Icelandic in origin.
14. Romans 8:31.
15. From Magnús lagabœtir Hákonarson’s Norwegian town law, section
3, chapter 4 (“Um uita uardhald ok vm sectir”), here substantially
truncated.49

in Vilhjálmur Finsen’s edition; the Festaþáttr of the Staðarhólsbók
version, chapter 171 in the edition; and the Kristinna laga þáttr
of Skálholtsbók eldri, chapter 8 in the edition.50 Also found in
