The Grettir's Saga on Sigurd
The Saga Of Grettir The Strong > Chapter Lxxxviii. Adventures Of Thorsteinn And Spes
attestation: Sigurd's men would not confirm what they heard because Spes displayed displeasure, so he found nothing on his search
"when they saw that the lady was displeased there was nothing to be got out of them; they said that one was often mistaken about sounds."
attestation: On a later occasion Sigurd burst into a tiring-room where Spes covered Thorsteinn with a bundle of clothes
"She showed many of the cloths to Thorsteinn and spread them out. When they were least expecting it her husband came up with a troop of men and broke into the room."
attestation: Sigurd and his men searched the room thoroughly but found only bare floor and a bed with Spes sitting on it
"Sigurd entered the room with his men, searched, and of course found nothing. The room was uninhabited and there was no furniture in it, but only the bare floor and a bed, on which the lady was sitting"
attestation: Sigurd demanded Spes clear herself formally before the bishop, and she eagerly agreed
""At the same time," he said, "you will have to deny that you have expended my money and my property.""
