Moreover,

In this 4. chapter, after puting forward set of 9 pairs icelandic
vovel figures(long,short), Þorodd says one can analyse like in Greek
where one long letter can be in one figure but one short can be in
an other figure.
epsilon is short but eta is long; o mikron is short but ö mega is
long. Then he follows with similiar runic examples.
One can not skip the initial factors before concluding.
Compairing diffrent Icelandic sets the Greek fashion.

Thanks Uoden.
ey is greater than au so ey is greater than ö.
ö is in au(öí). e is in eí that is also e í/j u.
