    Notes:

    ? death ?After his son's had left him, they began again with enchantments and witchcraft, to try if they could destroy their father. The sorceress Huld said that by witchcraft she could bring it about by this means, that a murderer of his own kin should never be wanting in the Yngling race; and they agreed to have it so. Thereafter they collected men, came unexpectedly in the night on Visbur, and burned him in his house. So sings Thjodolf: -- "Have the fire-dogs' fierce tongues yelling Lapt Visbur's blood on his own hearth? Have the flames consumed the dwelling Of the here's soul on earth? Madly ye acted, who set free The forest foe, red fire, night thief, Fell brother of the raging sea, Against your father and your chief." event married the daughter of Aude the Rich, and gave her as her bride-gift three large farms, and a gold ornament event ?confronted in Uppsala by his first two sons, when the one was twelve and the other thirteen years of age, and they desired to have their mother's dower; but he would not deliver it to them. Then they said that the gold ornament should be the death of the best man in all his race, and they returned home

    Notes:

    Death The third autumn, when the offer of sacrifices should begin, a great multitude of Swedes came to Upsal; and now the chiefs held consultations with each other, and all agreed that the times of scarcity were on account of their king Domald, and they resolved to offer him for good seasons, and to assault and kill him, and sprinkle the stalle of the gods with his blood. And they did so. Thjodolf tells of this: -- "It has happened oft ere now, That foeman's weapon has laid low The crowned head, where battle plain, Was miry red with the blood-rain. But Domald dies by bloody arms, Raised not by foes in war's alarms -- Raised by his Swedish liegemen's hand, To bring good seasons to the land." event ?given bad luck by the witchcraft used against him by his step-mother event ?took the heritage after his father Visbur, and ruled over the land event ?witnessed his people, for in his time there was great famine and distress, as they, the Swedes, made great offerings of sacrifice at Upsal. The first autumn they sacrificed oxen, but the succeeding season was not improved thereby event ?again watched his people make sacrifices, for in the following autumn they sacrificed men, but the succeeding year was rather worse
