The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·

"'You
must
know,
however,'
said
Thorhall,
'that
it
is
not
good
for
any
faint-hearted
man
to
live
at
my
place,
on
account
of
the
hauntings
that
have
been
of
late,
and
I
do
not
wish
to
deceive
you
in
any
way.'
"'I
do
not
think
myself
utterly
lost
although
I
see
some
wretched
ghosts,'
said
Thorgaut.
'It
will
be
no
light
matter
for
others
if
I
am
scared,
and
I
will
not
throw
up
the
place
on
that
account.'
"Their
bargain
was
quickly
made,
and
Thorgaut
was
to
have
charge
of
the
sheep
during
the
winter.
The
summer
went
past,
and
Thorgaut
began
his
duties
with
the
winter
nights,
and
was
well
liked
by
every
one.
Glam
began
to
come
again,
and
rode
on
the
house-top,
which
Thorgaut
thought
great
sport,
and
said
that
the
thrall
would
have
to
come
to
close
quarters
before
he
would
be
afraid
of
him.
Thorhall
bade
him
not
say
too
much
about
it.
'It
will
be
better
for
you,'
said
he,
'if
you
have
no
trial
of
each
other.'
"'Your
courage
has
indeed
been
shaken
out
of
you,'
said
Thorgaut,
'but
I
am
not
going
to
fall
dead
for
such
talk.'
"The
winter
went
on
till
Christmas
came
again,
and
on
Christmas
eve
the
shepherd
went
out
to
his
sheep.
'I
trust,'
said
the
good-wife,
'that
things
will
not
go
after
the
old
fashion.'
"'Have
no
fear
of
that,
good-wife,'
said
Thorgaut;
'there
will
be
something
worth
talking
about
if
I
don't
come
back.'
