To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" But Raud cried out against it, and uttering many grievous blasphemies, said he would never believe in Christ. Whereupon the King became angry, and said that Raud should die the worst of deaths. He had him bound with his back against a beam, and a gag was placed between his teeth to keep his mouth open. A viper was then put to his mouth, but shrank back from entering, because Raud breathed hard against it. Then the King caused a hollow stalk of angelica, or a trumpet, as some say who tell the ...story, to be fixed in his mouth. In this stalk the viper was placed, and by means of a hot bar of iron, from the heat of which it shrank, it was driven into Raud's mouth, whence it passed through his breast to his heart, and forced its way through his left side. Thus Raud lost his life. King Olaf here acquired a great amount of wealth, in gold, silver, and other portable property, in weapons and valuable articles of many kinds. All Raud's followers who remained alive and were willing to accept the Faith were then baptized ; those who were not willing were either slain or tortured.
