‘Egil took a hazel pole and went to a rock facing inland. Then he took a horse’s head, and put it at the end of a pole.
Afterwards, he made an invocation saying: “Here I set upon this scorn pole and turn its scorn on King Erik and Queen Gunnhild”

A man so various, that he seemed to be
Not one, but all mankind’s epitome:
Stiff in opinions, always in the wrong;
Was everything by starts, and nothing long;
But, in the course of one revolving moon,
Was chymist, fiddler, statesman and buffoon.
