To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus wereall the islanders, men, women, and children, made Christians. Sowhen these ceremonies were over, Olaf weighed anchor and sailedout eastward for Norway.
Ill content was Thorir Klakka at seeing with what ease Olaf Triggvisonhad gained influence over these people, and how ready all men wereto follow and obey him. If his power were so strong over men whoowed him no allegiance, and who did not even know of his royalbirth, how much greater must it be over the people of Norway, whoseadherence... to the family of Harald Fairhair would give them a doublereason for obeying him? If Olaf should ever set foot in Norway andproclaim his real name then it might go far more ill with Hakonof Lade than the earl had supposed, when he sent his friend Thoriracross to Ireland. As the ships sailed eastward across the sea Thorirthought this matter over, and it came into his mind that it wouldbe better for Hakon's safety that Olaf Triggvison should never beallowed to reach his intended destination.
On a certain night Olaf stood alone at the forward rail of hisship, looking dreamily out upon the sea.
