Hollander: Gautrekssaga and H ólfssaga. 127
his sorrow. When his son Hjálmþér asks whether he means
to sit thus longer and yearn after the departed, instead of
seeking him another queen, he answers naught. One day,
he strolls down to the shore, ”med mikilli sturlan ok áhyggju,
hugsandi hversu veröldin mátti brigd verda”, from which
heavy thoughts he is roused — and rid — by the lovely
sorceress Lúda who lands there in a boat. — In the same
saga, another king loses his queen *). War haugr orpinn
eftir hana, ok þrádi konungr mjök drótning sina”. — In the
Göngu-Hrólfssaga, it is Jarl J>orgnýr who laments the loss
of his consort. The burial-mound for her was thrown up
near the castle 2). ”Sat Jarl þar oftlega 1 gódum vedrum,
eár þá hann hafdi málstefnur, edr lét leika fyrir sér”. And
one fine day 3), as the Jarl sat Ӈ haugi drotningar, ok var
Jeikit fyrir honum”, a swallow drops a golden hair of wond-
rous length, which sight kindless new love in him. With
reawakened energy, he makes the solemn vow to win the
woman or die in the attempt.
Ranisch 4), in thinking ”á haugi drotningar” to be a
mistaken addition of AbC, has not stopped to reflect that
the king’s Traum verlorenheit is the very condition for
his giving Ref a golden bracelet in return for a stone to
stir up his hawT
k with! For that matter, why — except for
”dœgrastytting” in his sorrow — should the doughty king
(in either version) sit all day on the hill and hunt with his
hawk? Hence, I incline to the belief that L is the guilty
party, in having omitted to mention the early death of the
Studier 1909 ’At sidde paa høj’. As Olrik is not aware of the instances here
mentioned, his conclusion ”Den døde dronning (in the G-autrekssaga) spiller
ingen rolle i sagaen; sorgen over hendes død er øiensynlig blot opfundet
for at forklare kongens vane at sitja å haugi" (1. c. p. 3) is quite unwaiy
ranted.
