The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·

Thurid
asked
Thorgunna
what
she
supposed
this
marvel
might
portend.
She
said
that
she
did
not
know,
"but
it
seems
to
me
most
likely
that
it
is
an
evil
omen
for
some
person
who
is
present
here".
In
the
evening
Thorgunna
went
home
and
took
off
her
clothes,
which
had
been
stained
with
the
blood;
then
she
lay
down
in
her
bed
and
breathed
heavily,
and
it
was
found
that
she
was
taken
with
sickness.
The
shower
had
not
fallen
anywhere
else
than
at
Froda.
All
that
evening
Thorgunna
would
taste
no
food.
In
the
morning
Thorodd
came
to
her
and
asked
about
her
sickness,
and
what
end
she
thought
it
would
have.
She
answered
that
she
did
not
expect
to
have
any
more
illnesses.
Then
she
said:
"I
consider
you
the
wisest
person
in
the
homestead
here,
and
so
I
shall
tell
you
what
arrangements
I
wish
to
make
about
the
property
that
I
leave
behind
me,
and
about
myself,
for
things
will
go
as
I
tell
you,
though
you
think
there
is
nothing
very
remarkable
about
me.
It
will
do
you
little
good
to
depart
from
my
instructions,
for
this
affair
has
so
begun
that
it
will
not
pass
smoothly
off,
unless
strong
measures
are
taken
in
dealing
with
it."
Thorodd
answered:
"There
seems
to
me
great
likelihood
that
your
forebodings
will
come
true;
and
therefore,"
said
he,
"I
shall
promise
to
you
not
to
depart
from
your
instructions".
