[8-3] The Kristni-Saga, which tells of the conversion of Iceland, says:
"That summer [1000] King Olaf [of Norway] went out of the country to
Wendland in the south, and he sent Leif Eric's son to Greenland to preach
the faith there. It was then that Leif discovered Vinland the Good. He
also discovered a crew on the wreck of a ship out in the deep sea, and so
he got the name of Leif the Lucky." For passages from other sagas that
corroborate Leif's discovery on his voyage from Norway to Greenland
(_i.e._, in the year that Olaf Tryggvason fell, namely, 1000), see
Reeves, _The Finding of Wineland the Good_ (London, 1895), pp. 7-18.

[12-2] In other respects the editors speak highly of the saga as found in
Hauk's Book and AM. 557: "This saga has never been so well known as the
other, though it is probably of even higher value. Unlike the other, it
has the form and style of one of the 'Islendinga Sogor' [the Icelandic
sagas proper]; its phrasing is broken, its dialogue is excellent, it
contains situations of great pathos, such as the beautiful incident at
the end of Bearne's self-sacrifice, and scenes of high interest, such as
that of the Sibyl's prophesying in Greenland...." II. 591.
