sailing towards the land. From one of them came a
terrible hog that waded ashore, accompanied by many
swine. They ravaged and laid waste the land but an
exceptionally handsome bear came running down from
the land and sprang against the hog. The struggle between
the two concluded with the defeat of the bear. All the
people were afraid and took flight but Gullbrá then came
up to Vilmundr and he took her in under his skin-coat
and turned against the hog. At that very moment he
awoke. The king’s daughter understands that he will at
some time come to her aid and she asks him to turn to
her, if he has need of help, should he take up residence
in this land with her father. After this Vilmundr leaves
the tower. The weather is now fine and the sun is shining
brightly.
