Þorgeirr segir: 'Ekki hugða ek, at hann mætti mik þessa 420
kunna, því at eigi drap ek son hans, ok má hann af því eigi á
mér þessu hefna.'
'Eigi vildi hann á þér þessu hefna', segir Þorkell, 'en fór

hann at þér harðara en hann vildi, ok galt hann óskygnleika
425 síns, en vænti sér af þér nökkurs trausts. Er þat nú drengskapr
at veita gömlum manni ok þurftigum. Er honum þetta
nauðsyn, en eigi seiling, þó at hann mæli eptir son sinn, en nú
ganga allir höfðingjar undan liðveizlu við þessa menn ok sýna
í því mikinn ódrengskap.'
430 Þorgeirr mælti: 'Við hvern eigu þessir menn at kæra?'
Þorkell svaraði: 'Hrafnkell goði hefir vegit son hans
Þorbjarnar saklausan. Vinnr hann hvert óverk at öðru, en vill
engum manni sóma vinna fyrir.'
Þorgeirr mælti: 'Svá mun mér fara sem öðrum, at ek veit
435 eigi mik þessum mönnum svá gott upp at inna, at ek vilja
ganga í deilur við Hrafnkel. Þykki mér hann einn veg fara
hvert sumar við þá menn, sem málum eigu at skipta við hann,
at flestir menn fá litla virðing eða enga, áðr lúki, ok sé ek þar
fara einn veg öllum. Get ek af því flesta menn ófúsa til, þá
440 sem engi nauðsyn dregr til.'
