The next summer, at the Althing, Skapti and his folk pushed the wooingeagerly, and said that Thorstein was free as to all matters withGunnlaug. Thorstein answered, "I have few daughters to see to, and fain am I thatthey should not be the cause of strife to any man. Now I will first seeIllugi the Black. " And so he did. . And when they met, he said to Illugi, "Dost thou not think that I amfree from all ...troth with thy son Gunnlaug?" Illugi said, "Surely, if thou wiliest it.
