or búðar-verðr, [verðr = cibus], the cooking and stewardship in a vessel, work which the crew was bound to do in turn day by day; cooking and dairy work was thought unworthy to be the sole business of a man, and therefore the sailors were obliged to take it turn about, 194, 196, 220:— meat, meal, eigi hafða ek þina veðra … mér til búðarvarðar, the rams of thy flock I have not eaten, 181. Gen. xxxi. 38; lofa mér at búa þér búðarvörð, ‘let me set a morsel of bread before thee,’ in the V., 493. 1 Sam. xxviii. 22; ráða til b., to prepare for a meal, v. 287, viii. 357; honum þótti þar gott til blaut-fisks ok búðarvarðar, i. 853, i. 311, ii. 16, ii. 209.
