If anyone wants to get started on this, I'll chip in with comments
as far as I'm able (and maybe wiser people too).  The first
chapter's fairly short.

The second link is the English translation of William Morris and
Eiríkur Magnsússon.  It's in Morris's mock-archaic style which
sounds great read aloud, but can be hard to understand in places.
