Sigurd, Sigurd, this misdeed must thou hinder.

Sigurd.

[Goes quickly to the door of the hut, and calls in.] Up from the board, Örnulf; take vengeance on Kåre the Peasant.

Örnulf.

[Comes out, with the rest.] Kåre the Peasant—where is he?

Sigurd.

He is making for Gunnar’s hall to burn it over their heads.

Örnulf.

Ha-ha—let him do as he will; so shall I be avenged on Gunnar and Hiördis, and afterwards I can deal with Kåre.

Sigurd.
