But should he do these things secretly, he shall suffer no punishment, (i) 5. The old laws concerning the exposure of children the eating of horseflesh, and all others which do not overthrow Christianity, shall remain in force. ►, In 1056, Iceland received a Bishop, Isleif. He was succeeded, in 1096, by his son Gizor, also a married man, who made Skalholt the seat of the Bishopric. The rich and marvellous literary age of Iceland began soon after the establishment of Christianity, when the art.o...f writing was introduced and schoola were opened in all parts of the island. The easy form of Christianity inaugurated in 1000, changed little in the habits or tastes of the people. The " exposure of 168 ICELAND. children," for example, was a liberty allowed the father, either to accept a child at its birth, or to carry it to a waste place, to perish by hunger and cold or be de- voured by wild animals. The change of faith, therefore, still allowed the oral sagas to exist — nay, affected their conversion into per- manent chronicles, at a time when the greater part of such literature, in Scandinavia and Germany, was suppressed by monkish influences.
