Here's a sample of the goodness

"1.
Herjúlfur var Bárðarson Herjúlfssonar. Hann var frændi Ingólfs landnámamanns. Þeim Herjúlfi gaf Ingólfur land á milli Vogs og Reykjaness.

Herjúlfur bjó fyrst á Drepstokki. Þorgerður hét kona hans en Bjarni son þeirra og var hinn efnilegsti maður. Hann fýstist utan þegar á unga aldri. Varð honum gott bæði til fjár og mannvirðingar og var sinn vetur hvort, utan lands eða með föður sínum. Brátt átti Bjarni skip í förum. Og hinn síðasta vetur er hann var í Noregi þá brá Herjúlfur til Grænlandsferðar með Eiríki og brá búi sínu. Með Herjúlfi var á skipi suðureyskur maður, kristinn, sá er orti Hafgerðinga- drápu. Þar er þetta stef í:

Mínar bið eg að munka reyni
meinalausan farar beina,
heiðis haldi hárrar foldar
hallar drottinn yfir mér stalli.
Herjúlfur bjó á Herjúlfsnesi. Hann var hinn göfgasti maður. "
