Jakobina. I saw Ljot going out on the hraun.
Sveinungi and Jon appear, carrying the clock.
Sveinungi. You will have to be a little careful, the glass is broken. (Steps out into the open. To Jon.) I dare say you have had enough of this.
Jon. I can't say it was any too cheerful in there.
Sveinungi (to the men). You can carry the clock into the tent; the dampness here might be bad for it. And you, Bjørg, go and get a blanket to spread over the chest. Exeunt Servants, Bjørn running, Indridi and Helgi carrying the clock, Jakobina following them.
Jorunn. You are lucky, Sveinungi, that you have not come to grief with your foolhardiness.
Sveinungi. It is nothing but my duty to care as best I can for what is mine. I have risked my life before in a good deal worse dangers than this. But I must send some one to look after the boy. He may have lost all the sheep. Will you go, Jon?
Jon. I will.
Sveinungi. You had better drive the sheep home.
Jorunn. And if you should see Ljot and Einar, tell them to hurry.
