This fellow comes up repeatedly in Scenes from Comus (2005). In section 69 (p.49) the first time he is mentioned, without a first name, a fruitless search revealed a Tom Petersson, the Illinois-born bassist for the rock band Cheap Trick, or possibly a German mathemetician named Petursson, who complied with the Nazis... but no, Hallgrimur Petursson (the first name occurs, finally, in Part III, section 5, p.59) is neither of those identities..., but a "17th Century Lutheran poet, hymnwriter, priest/pastor from Iceland" to quote spurgeon.wordpress.com...
