In the summer Egil prepared his ship, and, when all was ready, at once set sail for Iceland. His voyage sped well. He came to Borgar-firth and brought in his ship just below his own house. He had his cargo conveyed home, and set up his ship. Egil stayed in his home that winter. He had now brought out very great wealth, and was a very rich man. He had a large and lofty house. Egil was by no means meddlesome with other men's matters, nor generally presuming when here in Iceland; nor did any try to encroach on what was his. Egil remained at home now for years not a few. Egil and Asgerdr had children thus named: Bodvar a son, and another son Gunnar; Thorgerdr a daughter, and Bera. Their youngest was Thorstein. All Egil's children were of good promise and intelligence. Thorgerdr was the eldest of the children, Bera the next.

Egill bjó skip sitt um sumarit ok fór, þegar hann var búinn. Hann helt til Íslands. Honum fórst vel. Helt hann til Borgarfjarðar ok kom skipinu skammt frá bæ sínum. Lét hann flytja heim varning sinn, en setti upp skipit. Var Egill vetr þann at búi sínu. Egill hafði nú út haft allmikit fé. Var hann maðr stórauðigr. Hann hafði mikit bú ok risuligt.

Ekki var Egill íhlutunarsamr um mál manna ok ótilleitinn við flesta menn, þá er hann var hér á landi. Gerðust menn ok ekki til þess at sitja yfir hlut hans. Egill var þá at búi sínu, svá at þat skipti vetrum eigi allfám.

Egill ok Ásgerðr áttu börn, þau er nefnd eru. Böðvarr hét sonr þeira, annarr Gunnarr, Þorgerðr dóttir ok Bera, Þorsteinn var yngstr. Öll váru börn Egils mannvæn ok vel viti borin. Þorgerðr var ellst barna Egils, Bera þar næst.
