² But now one thing must be said to young skalds, to such as yearn to attain to the craft of poesy and to increase their store of figures with traditional metaphors; or to those who crave to acquire the faculty of discerning what is said in hidden phrase: let such an one, then, interpret this book to his instruction and pleasure. Yet one is not so to forget or discredit these traditions as to remove from poesy those ancient metaphors with which it has pleased Chief Skalds to be content; nor, on the other hand, ought Christian men to believe in heathen gods, nor in the truth of these tales otherwise than precisely as one may find here in the beginning of the book.

Að vita meira en menn skilja.

 „Íslendinga vita of mikið um sögu sína í hlutfalli við það, sem þeir skilja.“ (Sigurður Nordal, Íslenzk menning, I. bindi, Mál og Menning, Reykjavík, 1942, bls. 35.)

„Hvað mundum vér þekkja til Snorra Sturlusonar, ef vér hefðum ekki aðrar heimildir um hann en frásagnir Sturlungu? Af þeim vitum vér, að Snorri var ekki eftirbátur neins af jafnöldrum sínum að sækjast eftir meiri auði og völdum en samrýmdist skipulagi þjóðveldisins. Í fari hans eru ýmsir aðrir brestir aldarháttar í berara lagi. Þótt hann væri um sumt betur siðaður, vekur saga hans grun um, að meir hafi hann brostið til ofbeldisverka harðfengi en ranglæti. Vér mundum hyggja hann hollan kirkju og kristni, því að hann var vel til Gvendar góða og flýði undan Sighvati og Sturlu með þeirri prýðilegu afsökun, að hann vildi ekki “fara að bróður sínum á þeim hátíðum, er þá fóru í hönd” (þ.e. dymbilviku og páskum). Hann heitir því fyrstur Íslendinga að koma landi undir Noregshöfðingja og er síðar ekki sterkari á svellinu en svo, sextugur maður og margreyndur, að hann þiggur jarlsnafn af Skúla hertoga 1239 – í þeirri von, að uppreisn Skúla heppnist í Noregi og höfðingjar á Íslandi verði talhlýðnari, eftir að ofsamaðurinn Sturla Sighvatsson sé af dögum ráðinn.“ (Op. cit., bls. 343-344)

Vilhjálmur Þ. Gíslason virðist setja fram óbeint svar við þessari lýsingu Sigurðar Nordals (1942) í bók sinni Snorri Sturluson og Goðafræðin, Ísafoldarprentsmiðja, Reykjavík, 1941-1942, bls. 160-161:

„Lýsing Nordals [á Snorra Sturlusyni] er íslenzkum lesendum miklu kunnari [en lýsingar erlendra fræðimanna].  Snorri var að vísu laus við ýmsa lökustu galla samtíðarmanna sinna, segir Nordal. Hann var ekki grimmur og ekki beint riðinn við hryðjuverk. Hann lifði hinu fjölbreyttasta lífi. En hann skorti skörungskap og röggsemi og brast persónulegt hugrekki. Hann var ágengur og sínkur, en enginn maurapúki. Í honum berjast andstæðar hvatir. Viðleitni hans og hæfileikar stefna ekki í sömu átt. Hann vill vera höfðingi, en hefur ekki hæfileika til þess. Hann er marglyndur og tilfinningar hans grunnar og hverfular. Hann vantar samkvæmni og þrautseigju. Samt var hann of kaldur reikningsmaður. Hann var metorðagjarn, en reikull í ráði og leiðitamur. Hann gat látið sér nægja yfirskynið tómt, það að sýnast, en vera ekki. Framkomu hans gat skort stórmennsku og drenglyndi. Marglyndið veikti vilja hans, en var ágætur jarðvegur fyrir fjölbreyttar gáfur og gerði honum auðvelt að lifa sig inn í annarra manna hugsanir. Samt varð hann ekki mikið skáld, af því að hann orti eftir reglum listar, sem fyrir löngu hafði lifað sitt fegursta, og guðmóðurinn bregst honum, þegar hann talar frá eigin brjósti. Honum er tamara að móta gersemar úr brotasilfri, en að sækja sjálfan málminn inn í bergið. Hann er ekki brautryðjandi, heldur arfþegi. Loks telur Nordal, að Sturlunga sé Snorra heldur vilhöll og beri honum vel söguna, eða sé heldur á hans bandi.

Margt í þessum Snorralýsingum [Nordals og annarra], sem nú voru nefndar, er skrifað af fróðleik, fjöri og mælsku. En nú þurfa þær samt einnig sinnar endurskoðunar, þar sem þær virðast vera í ósamræmi við heimildir, eða lýsa ósanngjarnlega persónu og störfum Snorra.“

Yes, sooner die than yield an inch.”

15021 = quaesitam meritis et mihi Delphica

15259 = lauro cinge volens, Melpomene, comam.*

262982

* I have created a monument more lasting than bronze and loftier than the royal pyramids, a monument which neither the biting rain nor the raging North Wind can destroy, nor can the countless years and the passing of the seasons.  I will not entirely die and a great part of me will avoid Libitina, the goddess of Death; I will grow greater and greater in times to come, kept fresh by praise.  So long as the high priest climbs the stairs of the Capitolium, accompanied by the silent Vestal Virgin, I, now powerful but from humble origins, will be said to be the first to have brought Aeolian song to Latin meter where the raging Aufidius roars and where parched Daunus ruled over the country folk.  Embrace my pride, deservedly earned, Muse, and willingly crown me with Apollo’s laurel.

II. Westminster Abbey Monument¹

(Erected in 1797)

On the west wall of Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey is a white and grey marble monument to the famous actor David Garrick. It consists of a standing figure of the actor who holds aside curtains, as if taking a bow after a performance, and on either side are seated the figures of Tragedy and Comedy. Above Garrick’s head is a medallion portrait inscribed ‘Shakspeare’. The sculptor was Henry Webber and the inscription, written by actor Samuel Jackson Pratt, reads:

“To the memory of David Garrick, who died in the year 1779, at the age of 63. To paint fair Nature, by divine command, her magic pencil in his glowing hand, a Shakspeare rose, then to expand his fame wide o’er this “breathing world”, a Garrick came. Though sunk in death the forms the poet drew, the actor’s genius bade them breathe anew; though, like the Bard himself, in night they lay, immortal Garrick call’d them back to day: and till eternity with power sublime, shall mark the mortal hour of hoary time, Shakspeare & Garrick like twin stars shall shine, and earth irradiate with a beam divine. S.J.Pratt. This monument, the tribute of a friend, was erected in 1797”.

(King James Bible, 1611)

Pilate therefore saide vnto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou saiest that I am a king. To this end was I borne, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should beare witnesse vnto the trueth: euery one that is of the trueth heareth my voice.

Pythagoras: All is number

An Irish friend and correspondent who is fluent in several languages, including Greek, Hebrew and Icelandic, and also a mathematical wizard, noted yesterday that the numerical value of the name Pythagoras in so-called Greek 800 gematria is 864.

This evening I responded to his message as follows:

Many years ago I read somewhere that a threesome consisting of Pythagoras, 5255, Lysis, 3146, and Archippus, 5355, were in a house that was set on fire by enemies that wanted them dead – but all three, 5255 + 3146 + 5355 = 13756, escaped.

If we go by the obvious and assume that Archippus is Pythagoras at The End, 100 as in 5255 + 100 = 5355, then an interesting result comes from assuming that 864 is associated with each of the threesome, as in 864 + 864 + 864 + 100 = 2692 = ÍSLAND or Iceland.

In turn, this may be the explanation for the unexplained statement by Arngrímur the learned that the Settlement of Iceland had taken place in the ‘year´ 864 A.D., as I have mentioned before.

Assuming further that the invariability of the 864 attribute is one with that of the Gnostic Jesus Patibilis, 7864 – the Passible Jesus – then the association of the Gnostic concept with Tri-unite Pythagoras would sum to 13756 + 7864 = 21620.

And, as it happens, this is the Cipher Value of what could be called a short version of Brennu-Njálssaga, beginning with: 7196 + 6067 + 3027 = 16290

These are the Cipher Values of the three corners of The Sacred (Pythagorean) Triangle of Pagan Iceland, as Einar Pálsson called it, namely, Bergþórshváll, 7196, Miðeyjarhólmr, 6067, and Helgafell, 3027.

The climactic moment of the revenge for the burning of Brennu-Njáll, 5327, comes when Kári Sölmundarson strikes off the head of the last arsonist – Man-Beast of Seventh day – and the head ‘speaks ten’ as it flies off the body, as in – 7 + 10 = 3.

As in 16290 + 5327 + 3 = 21620.

As in as in 10900 + 7 + 7000 + 3713 = 21620.

Just as Gertrude,, 4520, and Claudius, 4470, came out of their (apparently) grim fate as Brave New World, 8990, as in 4520 + 4470 = 8990, so the decapitation of Kolr would seem to symbolize transformation of Man-Beast of Seventh Day, 7, into Microcosmos, 7000, or Creation/Man in God’s Image.

A blessed event that Sir Thomas More may have likened to rotten Mankind’s ultimate end-station, UTOPIA, 3713.
