From The Outlaw by August Strindberg

male · anguished · 58 sec

You saw my ship--you knew my song, and you would have barred the door against me! What am I to understand, Gunlöd? GUNLÖD. Oh, ask me nothing! I am so unquiet of spirit but sit and let me talk to you. GUNNAR . You are silent. GUNLÖD. You are silent, too. GUNNAR . Gunlöd, Gunlöd--has the snow fallen so heavily that memories have been chilled even the mountains here burst forth with fire--and you are cold as a snow wind--but speak--speak! Why are you here in Iceland--and what has happened? GUNLÖD. Terrible things--and more may follow if you stay here longer.--. Go, before my father comes.
