33. MARRIAGES AND CHILDREN OF HARALD HARDRADE.

The winter after King Magnus the Good died, King Harald took Thora,

daughter of Thorberg Arnason, and they had two sons; the oldest called

Magnus, and the other Olaf. King Harald and Queen Ellisif had two

daughters; the one Maria, the other Ingegerd. The spring after the foray

which has just been related King Harald ordered the people out and went

with them to Denmark (A.D. 1049), and herried there, and did so summer

after summer thereafter. So says Stuf, the skald:--

"Falster lay waste, as people tell,--

The raven in other isles fared well.

The Danes were everywhere in fear,

For the dread foray every year."
