Gorm.She is a wolf.

Dansberg. Gorm.She is a wolf.God is not blind as I am.

(A pause.)

My daughter’s daughter struck me. Therefore I know

That she would kill me. Kill me, then, and quickly,

That I may go to God with branded cheeks

To plead compassion for me—for I’ve done

Sins in this world. But who would punish me—

More—after this? Now let me die. I wait.

(Silence. A gust of wind blows through the forest.)
