At last Ottar bade her look to her hand.

Then, modestly lifting her eyes, she turned her calm gaze upon him; and straightway, the pretended marriage being put away, went up unto the bride-bed to be his wife.

Siwald afterwards seized Ottar, and thought that he ought to be hanged for defiling his daughter.
But Sigrid at once explained how she had happened to be carried away, and not only brought Ottar back into the king's favour, but also induced her father himself to marry Ottar's sister.

After this a battle was fought between Siwald and Ragnald in Zealand, warriors of picked valour being chosen on both sides.

For three days they slaughtered one another; but so great was the bravery of both sides, that it was doubtful how the victory would go.
