Biörn.
She looked all pale and disturbed. I asked if she were sick; she answered not, but said: “Go to my mother and tell her the knight sets forth from here ere daybreak; if she have letters or messages for him, beg her not to delay him needlessly.” And then she added somewhat that I heard not rightly.
Lady Inger.

Biörn.
It sounded to me as though she said:—“Almost I fear he has already tarried too long at Östråt.”
Lady Inger.
And the knight? Where is he?
Biörn.
