To our meeting again in health and glad-hearted.

To herself that draught betided woe.

No, Signë, ne’er drink wine or mead

From that goblet.

[Pours its contents out at the window.

We must away with all speed.

[Tumult and calls without, at the back.

Signë.

List, Gudmund! Voices and trampling feet!

Gudmund.
