The Book of Dreams and Ghosts

"Thorhall
sent
to
the
next
farm
for
the
men
there,
and
told
them
what
had
taken
place.
All
thought
highly
of
the
exploit
that
heard
of
it,
and
it
was
the
common
talk
that
in
all
Iceland
there
was
no
man
like
Grettir
Asnundarson
for
strength
and
courage
and
all
kinds
of
bodily
feats.
Thorhall
gave
him
a
good
horse
when
he
went
away,
as
well
as
a
fine
suit
of
clothes,
for
the
ones
he
had
been
wearing
were
all
torn
to
pieces.
The
two
then
parted
with
the
utmost
friendship.
"Thence
Grettir
rode
to
the
Ridge
in
Water-dale,
where
his
kinsman
Thorvald
received
him
heartily,
and
asked
closely
concerning
his
encounter
with
Glam.
Grettir
told
him
how
he
had
fared,
and
said
that
his
strength
was
never
put
to
harder
proof,
so
long
did
the
struggle
between
them
last.
Thorvald
bade
him
be
quiet
and
gentle
in
his
conduct,
and
things
would
go
well
with
him,
otherwise
his
troubles
would
be
many.
Grettir
answered
that
his
temper
was
not
improved;
he
was
more
easily
roused
than
ever,
and
less
able
to
bear
opposition.
In
this,
too,
he
felt
a
great
change,
that
he
had
become
so
much
afraid
of
the
dark
that
he
dared
not
go
anywhere
alone
after
night
began
to
fall,
for
then
he
saw
phantoms
and
monsters
of
every
kind.
So
it
has
become
a
saying
ever
since
then,
when
folk
see
things
very
different
from
what
they
are,
that
Glam
lends
them
his
eyes,
or
gives
them
glam-sight.
