XXIX Loptidæ indicari curavit, íi íibi infenfe adverfaretur, ita ut fuam non poífet obtiriere caufam, fe de facerdote homicidiis ultionem fumturum; cui Jonas refpondit : fcire fe, qvod homicidiorum haud parcus eífet, fed íi Sturla unum Pauli neceífariorum occideret, fe tres Sturlungos ejus loco fublatu- rum; cumqve omnia iníidiis eífent plena, Thorlacus Epifcopus Paulo, ut armatus incederet, per- miíit. Tandem autem, intercedente Brando Epifcopo, res eo dedufta eft, ut utriqve Loptidæ ar- bitrio caufam permitterent, qvi talein pronunciavit fententiam, ut Sturlæ XXX hundredæ, id eft, 120 unciæ penderentur, ipfe autem euin ad folenne convivium in Odda, die encaeniorum templi Oddeníis inftituendum invitavit, & placamenti honorisqve ergo filii natu minimi educationem ob- tulit. Qvo fafto, tantæ & tam diuturnæ turbæ fedatæ fuerunt, qvæ res SNORRONI ad magnam ölam eruditionem & celebritatem, qvam poftea adeptus eft, viam ftravit. $. VIII. Natus eft Sftorvo nofter Anno 1178» nomen, ut verifimile eft, fortitus celeberrimi Snorronis, vulgo difti Gopi, á qvo per varia ftemmata genus ducebat. Triennis in familiam Jonæ Loptidæ tranfiit, qvi eum in artibus liberalibus fideliter informavit, id qvod feliciter ceífit, cum ingenio felici & qvarumvis difciplinarum capace præditus efiet. Ðe pueritia & educatione nihil notatu dignum oc- currit, ufqve ad mortem Jonæ Loptidæ, qvæ in annum 1197 incidit. Seqvente anno, aut an. 1199, Thordus Sturlæus ei conciliavit nuptias Herdifæ Berfi, vel Beífi íiliæ, virginis opulentæ, cum in cenfu haberet circiter 4000 imperiales, Snorro autem prorfus egenus eflet, mater enim parvum ejus patrimonium 160 imper. profuderat, cujus loco prædium Hvamm, aut emancipavit aut op- pignoravit, cum qva Snorro primum fociam habere villicadonem conftituerat, fed vix unam dura- vit æftatem ea focietas, nam fub hyemem in Oddam ad Sæmundum íe cum uxore contulit, ibiqve hyemem tranfegit. $. ix. Anno, qvi Snorronis 2omus fuifle videtur, five 1198, maxima ardebant odia & incurfiones, in- ter Sæmundum & Sigurdum Ormi f., qvarum caufa fuit hæreditas Glæderi cujusdam, qvæ in ditione Sigurdi fuit, qvam ideo ut propior, prior occupare potuit, & Karo cuidam adminiftrandam tradi- dit. Sæmundus vero licet caufam arbitrio Pauli Epifcopi & Thorvaldi Gifluridæ fubmittere vellet, & Sigurdo eam obferret conditionem, nihil tamen æqvuin á Sigurdo impetrare potuit, cum Kol- beinus Tumi f., & Sighvatus Sturlæ f., validum promittentes auxiliuin, eum ne in minimo cede- ret inftigarent, cumqve nihil proficeret, Sæmundus'hac hyeme, Snorrone & globo armatorum cin&us, in Sigurdi ditionem irrumpens, Karum occidit, & paulo poft Snorro, nomine Sæmundi, Sigurdo diem dixit, ut in Foro Thingíkalenfi caufam diceret, moxqve in Sæinundi gratiam iter in Borgarfiordum inftituit, ad evocandum colonos, Jonæ Loptidæ, dum vixit, amicos & fubditos, qvi Sæmundo in Foro Thingíkalenfi adeflent, & cum eo pugnarent, fi modo Sigurdus vi caufam tueri vellet, qvod Snorro fideliter exfecutus, multos fortes viros Sæmundo adduxit; fed cum Si- gurdus in hoc foro non compareret, Snorro eum exilio multavit. Qvo audito, Sigurdus 240 arma- tis cinftus, contra Sæmundum tetendit, ille vero viris 800 ftipatus, in occurfum ei movit; cujus rei certiores fa&i Paulus Epifcopus &Thorvaldus Gifluri, colleflo exercitu interceflerunt, ne con- fligerent, tandemqve ut Sigurdus, necefíitate adaflus, caufas Epifcopi arbitrio permitteret, effecerunt. §. X. In familia Sæmundi qvamdiu Snorro vixerit, incertum eft, fed anno 1202, poft mortem fo- ceri fui Berfi Sacerdotis, omnes ejus divitias naftus, in prædio celebri Borg, uxoris hæreditario lares fixit. In Gardis in lingula Akranes tunc refidebat Snorronis avunculus, Thordus Bodvaris filius, cujus prætura (Godord) per Borgarfiordum ita diíþerfa fuit, ut qvidam ejus curiales in ditio- neThordi Sturlæi, ejus ex forore nepotis, habitarent, qvibus, ut ei videbatur, Thordus íé minus æqvum præftitit, qvapropter ut Thordo ægre faceret, & forte ut fratres inter fe committeret, hane præturæ partem Snorroni, ea conditione dono dedit, ut utriusqve fubditos ab omni injuria defenderet, unde brevi inter fratres fimultates oriri cœperunt, qvod non incredibile, cum familia hæc imperiofa, ambitiofa & lucri cupida eflet, unde raro inter hos fratres & cognatos fraterna fuit concordia, licet fímultates rarius in aperta erumperent odia; qvod tamen qvandoqve accidifle ex dicendis patebit. §• XI. Snorrone Borgam infidente, Orcadenfes qvidam mercatores fluvium Hviitaa intrabanc, qvibus præfuit Thorkillus Roftungus, filius Kolkini Caroli, fratris Biarnii Epifcopi, qvi ad Borgam hyema- h tum
