H. G. ahton; the Northern languages use none of these words, but only the derivative ætla; an old Germ. ahtilon would answer to Icel. ætla; Scot. ettle.]B.

G. L. i. 104; but it is now hardly possible to restore the whole verse, which had already been corrupted in tradition, so that when the compiler of Magnús Saga quoted it, he did not make out the full sense of it. The true context has been pointed out by Maurer in Abhandl. der k. Bayer. Acad. der W. 1872.
