Easy Readings In Old Icelandic
Chapter 20
(Continuation)
Ívarr
játtar at fara með honum. Heðinn varð glaðr við þat, ok mælti: "Þess
skaltu varask at ganga eigi framan at Högna, ok þess annars, at drepa
mik eigi fyrr enn Högna, sakir þess, at þat er einkis mensks manns, at
ganga framan at Högna, eðr drepa hann, ef ek em áðr dauðr, þvíat hann
hefir œgishjálm í augum, ok hlífir engu vætta, ok því er þat eina til,
at ek gangi at honum framan, ok berjumk ek við hann, enn þú gangir at
baki honum, ok veitir honum banatilræði, þvíat þér man lítit fyrir verða,
at bana mér, þá er ek lifi vár allra lengst." Síðan ganga þeir til
bardaga, ok sér Ívarr, at þetta er alt satt, sem Heðinn hafði sagt honum;
gengr hann at baki Högna, ok höggr í höfuð honum, ok klýfr hann í herðar
niðr; fellr Högni þá dauðr, ok stóð aldri upp síðan. Síðan drap hann þar
þá menn alla, er at bardaganum vóru, enn síðast Heðinn, ok varð honum
lítit fyrir því. Síðan gekk hann til skipa, ok var þá lýst af degi; hann
fór til konungs, ok sagði honum. Konungr lét vel yfir verki hans, ok sagði
honum giptulega tekizk hafa. Eftir um daginn gengu þeir á land, ok þar
til, sem bardaginn hafði verit, ok sá þar engan stað þeirra tíðenda, er
þar hofðu verit, enn blóð sásk á sverði Ívars til merkja, ok aldri hurfu
þar varðhaldsmenn síðan.
