CHAPTER LIX. GISLI'S MEETING WITH GRETTIR.
[Songs extracted from the prose narrative.]
148
[“In fighting ring where steed meets steed]
[Grettir.]“In fighting ring where steed meets steed,
The sluggish brute of mongrel breed,
Certes will shrink back nothing less
Before the stallion's dauntlessness,
Than Gisli before me to-day;
As, casting shame and clothes away,
And sweating o'er the marsh with fear,
He helped the wind from mouth and rear.”
