Conversation(5)
with Olaf · weight 3 · ch. 29–29
“And towards the end of the winter Olaf told Giermund the reason of his voyage, which was that he wished to get for himself some house-timber, and said he set great store by obtaining timber of a choice kind.”
“Olaf told the Earl the reason of his journey, "And I beg this of you, sir, that you give us permission to cut wood for house-building from your forests."”
“Olaf then asked Giermund to come and stay with him.”
with Olaf · weight 3 · ch. 29–30
“Giermund said, "Earl Hakon has the best of woods, and I know quite well if you went to see him you would be made welcome to them, for the Earl receives well, men who are not half so well-bred as you, Olaf, when they go to see him."”
“Giermund said, "I shall not return for all your high words, for I mean to be your passenger."”
“Giermund thanked him well therefor, and said it was a noble gift.”
with Thorgerd · weight 1 · ch. 29–29
“Thorgerd went away and thought her business had sped well, and now told Giermund the upshot of it.”
with Thured · weight 3 · ch. 30–30
“Thured answered, "Would you rather than not have the sword back?"”
“Thured answered, "Then you shall never have it again, for you have in many ways behaved cowardly towards me, and here we shall part for good."”
“Thured said she would take the risk of that.”
with Thured · weight 3 · ch. 30–30
“Giermund answered, "I would give a great deal of money before I should care to let my sword go."”
“Then Giermund said, "Little luck will you get with the sword."”
“"Then I lay thereon this spell," said Giermund, "That this sword shall do to death the man in your family in who would be the greatest loss, and in a manner most ill-fated."”
