Random information on the term “YRS”:

Yrsa, Yrse, Yrs or Urse (fl. 6th century)[note 1] was a tragic heroine of early Scandinavian legend.

She appears in several versions relating to her husband, the Swedish king Eadgils, and/or to her father and rapist/lover/husband Halga (the younger brother of King Hrothgar who received aid from Beowulf) and their son Hrólfr Kraki. The common claim in Beowulf studies that Hrólfr Kraki probably was the son of Halga is taken from the Yrsa tradition. Several translators (e.g. Burton Raffel) and scholars have emended her name from a corrupt line (62) in the manuscript of Beowulf, although this is guesswork.[clarification needed]

The name Yrsa is not known from other Norse sources and may be derived from Latin Ursus (“bear”). It has been suggested that if she had any historic antecedent, she may have been Frankish and captured by Helgi in one of his raids. Scholars have noted chronological inconsistencies, in the traditions on Yrsa, in studies on whether there is a historical background. When Aðils was old enough to marry, Yrsa would already have been rather old, and they would have married for political reasons. According to a theory, she would have been the sister of Helgi, and before marrying Aðils, she would have been the wife of his brother Áli. In this way an emended line in Beowulf (1. 62) would be explained.
