The manuscripts of the Sjö meistara saga (Icelandic Version H) include prose translations from the Danish Folkebog (Danish Version H) as well as verse adaptations. The latter mostly appear in the form of the Icelandic Rímur (literal translation being 'rhymes'). Hubert Seelow divides the verse adaptations into two Groups: Group C is concerned with Rímur adaptaions; Group D designates the adaptations into the poem Vinaspegill. The oldest manuscripts of a verse adaptation that we know of date back to the 2nd half of the 17th century. However, the Rímur cycle they include was created by Björn Sturluson (1559-1621), which means that this version had to be around at least since the 1st quarter of the 17th century (see Seelow 1989: 214-215).
