(Reproachfully.) Nay, this in not right. [Embracing her. But when Gudmund comes will your heart grow light-- Light, as when I was a child, again. (MARGIT: So much has changed--ah, so much!--since then--) Margit, you shall be happy and gay! Have you not serving-maids many, and thralls? Costly robes hang in rows on your chamber walls; How rich you are, none can say. By day you can ride in the forest deep, Chasing the hart and the hind; By night in a lordly bower you can sleep, On pillows of silk reclined. (MARGIT: And he comes to Solhoug! He, as a guest!) What say you?
