Chapter XXVI Of Asgrim and His Children
There was a man named Asgrim. He was Ellidagrim’s son. The brother of Asgrim Ellidagrim’s son was Sigfus.
Asgrim had two sons, and both of them were named Thorhall. They were both hopeful men. Grim was the name of another of Asgrim’s sons, and Thorhalla was his daughter’s name. She was the fairest of women, and well behaved.
Njal came to talk with his son Helgi, and said, “I have thought of a match for thee, if thou wilt follow my advice”.
“That I will surely,” says he, “for I know that thou both meanest me well, and canst do well for me; but whither hast thou turned thine eyes?”
“We will go and woo Asgrim Ellidagrim’s son’s daughter, for that is the best choice we can make.”
