CHAPTER LVII. HOW THORIR OF GARTH SET ON GRETTIR ON ERNEWATERHEATH.
[Songs extracted from the prose narrative.]

[Grettir's lay on Hallamind.]
“Wide and high doth Hallmund stride,
In the hollow mountain side.”
In the hollow mountain side.”
And this stave also is therein:
“At Ernewater, one by one,
Stole the swords forth in the sun,
Eager for the road of death
Swept athwart by sharp spears' breath;
Many a dead Wellwharfer's lands
That day gave to other hands.
Hallmund, dweller in the cave,
Grettir's life that day did save.”
