These two heard tell of one another and challenges passed between them.

They came together and fought.
Asmund had the greater following, but he withheld some of his men from the battle: and so for the length of four days they fought, until many of Asmund's people were fallen, and at last he himself fled.

Ogmund won the victory and came home again with wealth and worship.
His father said that he could get no greater glory in war,--"And now," said he, "I will find thee a wife.

What sayest thou to Helga, daughter of Earl Frodi ?" "So be it," said Ogmund.
Upon this they set off to Earl Frodi's house, and were welcomed with all honour.

They made known their errand, and he took it kindly, although he feared that the fight with Asmund was likely to bring trouble.
Nevertheless this match was made, and then they went their ways home.
A feast was got ready for the wedding and to that feast a very great company came together.
Helga the daughter of Earl Frodi had a nurse that was a wise woman, and she went with her.
