Valgerd Monologue from The Outlaw

From The Outlaw by August Strindberg

female · anguished · 41 sec

Will you bear in mind every day without tears that we now dwell in the land of ice--fugitives from the kingdom of Svea and hated here by the Christ-men? But we have suffered no loss of greatness, although we have not been baptized and kissed the bishop's hand. Have you ever spoken to any of the Christians since we have been here? GUNLÖD . No. Tell me, mother, is it true that father is to be Erl here in Iceland, too?
