So I ask you to have me carried thither, and for that you shall take so much of my property that you suffer no loss in the matter.

Of my other effects, Thurid shall have the scarlet cloak that I own, and I give it her so that she may readily consent to my disposing of all the rest as I please.

I have a gold ring, and it shall go to the church with me; but as for my bed and bed-hangings, I will have them burned with fire, because they will be of service to no one.

I do not say this because I grudge that any one should possess these treasures, if I knew that they would be of use to them; rather am I so earnest in the matter, because I should be sorry for folk to fall into such trouble for me, as I know will be the case if my words are not heeded." Thorodd promised to do as she asked him, and after this Thorgunna's sickness increased, so that she lay but few days before she died.

The body was first taken to the church, and Thorodd had a coffin made for it.
