þrymr

nafnorðkarlkyn
1. an alarm, noise, in of battle: also in compds as, þrym-draugr, -kennir, -lundr, -njörðr, -regin, -rögnir, -svellir, -viðr, = a warrior ( Homeric βοην ἀγαθός); in the old lay, 2, for hvat þrymr þar, we read, hvat þrym () er þar, what din is there? The lost vellum, we suppose, had ‘hvat þrymz þar,’ where z might be the inflexive -r, but was meant to be the personal verb ‘er,’ often written in this abbreviated form above the line; þruma or þrymja, = tonare, is never found in old prose writers or poets; the conclusive reason is that the true idiomatic construction in this case is ‘hvat’ with a dative, and not with a verb ( hvat er þat hlym hlymja, )2. [ þrym], glorious; this seems to be the sense in 2. 14; þrymr um öll lönd (frægr um öll lönd, ); although the passage is somewhat imperfect, for the verb is wanting.
