Your pardon, Sir Councillor,—I account for my doings to none but God and myself. If it please you, then, let me understand what brings you hither.
Nils Lykke.
Gladly, Lady Inger! The purpose of my mission to this country can scarce be unknown to you——?
Lady Inger.
I know the mission that report assigns you. Our King would fain know how the Norwegian nobles stand affected towards him.
Nils Lykke.
Assuredly.
Lady Inger.
Then that is why you visit Östråt?
Nils Lykke.
