n. a box of laths or a basket to carry peat and the like on horseback, with a drop at the bottom, Lv. 65, (mó-hrip, torf-hrip.) hrips-grind, f. the frame of a h., id. Hence the phrase, það er eins og að ausa vatni í hrip, ‘it is like pouring water into a sieve,’ (cp. Lat. ‘Danaidum dolia implere’), of useless efforts: hurried work, e. g. hurried writing, as if dropped out of the quill.
