Here also the struggle was desperate.

Steinar and his company boarded at the prow, but I and my men, charging up both boards, drove them back again.

In that charge it is true that I, Olaf, fighting madly, as was my wont when roused, killed three of the Lesso folk with the Wanderer's sword.

Still I see them falling one by one.

Followed by six of my people, I sprang on to the raised prow of Steinar's ship.
