I thought it might be At need a friend that should set me free Should the King's men chance to lay hands on me. But from to-night it has lost its worth; Now will I fight all the kings of earth, Gather my kinsfolk and friends to the strife, And battle right stoutly for freedom and life. [Is about to throw the phial against a rock. (MARGIT: Nay, hold! Let me have it--) First tell me why?
