It says: - Although in this collection of poems one can find some very beautiful poems (such as\u003cbr\u003e and for example \"At the End of Life\" p. 59, \"Hugspár\" p. 61, \"Úr ötrðmælð\" p. 54, the mischievous satire \"Yöðavódin\" p. 780, etc.),\u003cbr\u003e It cannot be said, however, that it fills any gap in our literature or bears witness to the great poetic talent of the author, but only that he\u003cbr\u003e was a clever trickster. This seems to have been a \u003cbr\u003ebe clear, because the preface to the poem says:\u003cbr\u003e \"It should be noted that Erlendur did not intend for his poems to be\u003cbr\u003e would ever come to public view, because before he died he had burned a large collection of poems that he had in manuscript.
