Chapter LXXXVI Of King Eystein
Then King Eystein returned to his kingdom, and his expedition was variously thought of. Earl Harald remained in his dominions in the Orkneys, and most of the inhabitants were satisfied with his rule. At this time his father, Earl Maddad, was dead; but his mother, Margarét, had gone to the Orkneys. She was a handsome woman,396 but a virago. At this time David, the King of Scots, died, and his son Malcolm397 was made king. He was quite a child when he succeeded his father.
