But after many hard fights on land and sea, after many men had died and many had fled away to other lands, King Harald won, and he made the men that were yet[100] in the islands take the oath, and he left his earls to rule over them. ...I should like to stand on a hill and look around on a wide land and think, This is all ours, and out upon a rough sea and think, Far off there are our foes and they dare not come over to us.
