come hither in great numbers, and I have made up my mind that this
shall be the last bridal feast arrayed by me." Olaf answered: "That is
well spoken; but such a woman alone I mean to take to wife who shall
rob thee neither of wealth nor rule (over thine own)." [Sidenote:
Olaf's wedding] That same summer Olaf "Feilan" married Alfdis. Their
wedding was at Hvamm. Unn spent much money on this feast, for she let
be bidden thereto men of high degree wide about from other parts. She
invited Bjorn and Helgi "Bjolan," her brothers, and they came with
many followers. There came Koll o' Dales, her kinsman-in-law, and Hord

and all my other kindred and friends, I call witnesses to this, that
this dwelling with all its belongings that you now see before you, I
give into the hands of my kinsman, Olaf, to own and to manage."
[Sidenote: Unn's death] After that Unn stood up and said she would go
to the bower where she was wont to sleep, but bade every one have for
pastime whatever was most to his mind, and that ale should be the
