General Notes
- Dygvi, Dyggve or Digne was according to Ynglingatal a Swedish king of the House of Ynglings. He died in bed and never reached Valhalla. Instead he went to Hel, Loki's daughter, who acquired a husband of royal blood. In Ynglinga saga, Snorri Sturluson included a piece from Ynglingatal composed in the 9th century:
  
  Kveðkat dul,
  nema Dyggva hrör
  Glitnis gná
  at gamni hefr,
  því at jódis
  Ulfs ok Narfa
  Konungmann
  kjósa skyldi;
  ok allvald
  Yngva þjóðar
  Loka mær
  of leikinn hefr.[1] (http://www.home.no/norron-mytologi/sgndok/kvad/yngli.htm) Dygve the Brave, the mighty king,
  It is no hidden secret thing,
  Has gone to meet a royal mate,
  Riding upon the horse of Fate.
  For Loke's daughter in her house
  Of Yngve's race would have a spouse;
  Therefore the fell-one snatched away
  Brave Dygve from the light of day.(Laing's translation [2] (http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/heim/02ynglga.htm))
