The last night at home, so she fondly called Iceland, was spent with Orme and Halldis, to whose kindness she thawed at last. She cried upon Halldis's broad bosom, and revealed herself. "You see how it is with me now," she said. "If I never meet him again I shall never love another man. And I see no way of meeting him and so I must be wretched."
Halldis taught Gudrid numberless songs charms, incantations, love spells, and long, terrible tales about Valkyrs and their human lovers. The girl came to understand that love might become a tearing, wringing business, and marriage a tame road for life to take. Halldis's songs were seldom about marriage, but always about love.
Then she sat up on Halldis's lap and looked shyly at her, saying, "I am going to ask you something." "Ask, my child." "If it should happen ever that I come home again, and want to see Einar, will you give him this from me? He will know then what to do." Halldis promised. "He is mostly here every year," she said. "But there's no saying how it may find him."
