CHAPTER XL. OF GRETTIR AND SNŒKOLL.
[Songs extracted from the prose narrative.]
102
[“There the shield that men doth save]
[Grettir.]“There the shield that men doth save
Mighty spurn with foot I gave.
Snœkoll's throat it smote aright,
The fierce follower of the fight,
And by mighty dint of it
Were the tofts of tooth-hedge split;
The strong spear-walk's iron rim,
Tore a-down the jaws of him.”
