The Book of Dreams and Ghosts
·
Andrew Lang
277
After
this
Kjartan
summoned
Thorir
Wooden-leg,
and
Thord
summoned
Thorodd,
on
the
charge
of
going
about
the
homestead
without
leave,
and
depriving
men
of
both
health
and
life;
all
those
who
sat
beside
the
fire
were
summoned
in
the
same
way.
Then
a
court
was
held
at
the
door,
in
which
the
charges
were
declared,
and
everything
done
as
in
a
regular
law
court;
opinions
were
given,
the
case
summed
up,
and
judgment
passed.
After
sentence
had
been
pronounced
on
Thorir
Wooden-
leg,
he
rose
up
and
said:
"Now
we
have
sat
as
long
as
we
can
bear".
After
this
he
went
out
by
the
other
door
from
that
at
which
the
court
was
held.
Then
sentence
was
passed
on
the
shepherd,
and
when
he
heard
it
he
stood
up
and
said:
"Now
I
shall
go,
and
I
think
it
would
have
been
better
before".
When
Thorgrima
heard
sentence
pronounced
on
her,
she
rose
up
and
said:
"Now
we
have
stayed
while
it
could
be
borne".
Then
one
after
another
was
summoned,
and
each
stood
up
as
judgment
was
given
upon
him;
all
of
them
said
something
as
they
went
out,
and
showed
that
they
were
loath
to
part.
Finally
sentence
was
passed
on
Thorodd
himself,
and
when
he
heard
it,
he
rose
and
said:
"Little
peace
I
find
here,
and
let
us
all
flee
now,"
and
went
out
after
that.
Then
Kjartan
and
the
others
entered
and
the
priest
carried
holy
water
and
sacred
relics
over
all
the
house.
Later
on
in
the
day
he
held
solemn
service,
and
after
this
all
the
hauntings
and
ghost-walkings
at
Froda
ceased,
while
Thurid
recovered
from
her
sickness
and
became
well
again.
