This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1878 edition. Excerpt: ...is the modern vellum, now in Stockholm, No. 8, taken by Bishop Thorlak Skulason. (See Biskupa Sogur, vol. i. pp. 714, 715, chaps. 25, 26 of the Saga.) This was the only blank or mutilation (besides the lost end) in the vellum at that time, and a good luck has left us just this leaf, with the stumps remaining, so as to make the evidence complete and conclusive, for no two vellums could ever be alike as are two copies of the same printed editions. The text following after the last leaf that is left answers to four leaves and a half in the vellum; owing, we think, to the last page being, when in 1640 the copies were taken, blurred and unreadable. The sheet containing the end of the Saga was at that date also lost; but it appears to have been extant in 1580, from which time dates a modern Annal compilation (marked L and M in the edition of 1849). The compiler, as many entries show, knew Sturlunga and Bishop Ami's Saga. We take it to have been this very vellum that he had in hand. For besides entries well known to us from the preserved text (such as the Ballad ditties, A.d. 1218), there are two entire, highly interesting, now found nowhere, viz. the entry of the eruption and earthquake in the South in 1294, and the appearance of new Geysirs near Haukadal (see vol. ii. p. 475, see also the Editor's article on Geysir in the Dictionary). The second entry in question is the detailed account of the sudden destruction by lightning of the cathedral in Skalholt in 1309. Both entries we take to have been derived from the lost end of Bishop Ami's Saga, in this our very vellum, then complete. There are two leaves of another ' barren' vellum which yield a little better text for the portion they contain; they have been used in the Editor's Biskupa...
