Borgarfiord seems here to be a misreading for Breidafiord (the Moray Firth), unless we suppose that there was another Borgarfiord besides the one in Shetland. Jonæus has _nordr_ instead of _sudr_, thus making Swein sail north to Borgarfiord, which in this case would be in Shetland. But it is hardly probable that he would have taken Shetland in his route from Orkney to the coast of Moray. Footnote 355: Dúfeyrar must have been situated on the sandy shore of the parish of Duffus, on the Moray coast, _eyri_ signifying a spit of sand. It has been supposed, with some degree of probability, that Burghead is the place here meant. Footnote 356: Ekkialsbakki, probably for Atjoklsbakki. (See note on p. 107.) Footnote 357: Hjalmundal, Strath Helmsdale, or Strath Ulli, which runs up along the south side of the Ord, the mountain chain separating Caithness from Sutherland. The expression “near the middle of Sutherland” must mean that Swein came up through the central or inland region of the country, and thus came down into Strath Helmsdale, a long way from the coast, or “near the middle of the land.” Footnote 358: _Ines_ in Jonæus; it has not been identified. Footnote 359: Probably Lundy Island, in the Bristol Channel. Footnote 360: Syllingar, the Scilly Islands. There was an ecclesiastical settlement there in Olaf Tryggvason’s time. It was in the Scilly Islands that he was baptized, and embraced the faith which he afterwards propagated with the strong hand both in his own kingdom and in Orkney. Footnote 361: _Lúdr._—This same signal was used by the army of the Bœndr at the battle of Stiklestad (Flateyjarbók, ii. 352). The signal-horn used at the present day by the Shetland fishermen still retains the ancient name, “the ludr-horn.” Footnote 362: _Clavis Rhythmica_, apparently a kind of rhyming dictionary or repertory of versification. Torfæus states that this joint production of Earl Rögnvald and Hall, Ragna’s son, is still extant in the library at Upsala. Footnote 363: From the description of Lambaborg, and its situation with regard to the coast and the river at Freswick, it seems to have been the fortalice now called Bucholly Castle, from a Mowat of Bucholly who possessed it in the 17th century, and by whom it was partially rebuilt. Footnote 364: Probably now represented by Duffus in Moray. Footnote 365: This passage supplies the name of a prior of the monastery of May, not otherwise on record. (See records of the Priory of the Isle of May, issued by the Soc. Antiq. Scot. 1868). Footnote 366: See p. 123. Footnote 367: See chap. lxxiv. Footnote 368: The Stockholm translation of the Saga has “in Vigr,” instead of “in the Islands.” Footnote 369:
