Many of the Danish Kings have been crowned in its magnificent chapel. Wandering through the splendid rooms of the castle, Ingeborg could read the history of her country in a very pleasant and interesting manner. The collection being confined to one period for each room made instruction an easy affair for the grandfather.
Hardly am I settled in one place than I am again unsettled in another no home, no roots. What are those bells I hear? Ah, yes Fru Ingeborg lets the cows out. They are going to pasture for the first time this spring, so that they shall give more milk.... Here comes Nikolai to tell me he is ready. Yes, here is the knapsack.... "Nikolai, isn't it a bit early to let the cows out?"
"Of course not, by no means," said he. "Just for the moment. Perhaps we can get a loan further down the valley." "I don't borrow." "Ingeborg!" said he, pretending playfully to whimper. "What is it?" "Nothing. Can't I say 'Ingeborg' to my own wife?" "I'm not your own wife," she said, getting up. "Pish! We were man and wife last night. It says so in the visitors' book." She was silent at this.
She was very unlike Erling, or her father and mother, or her little sisters, in this respect. "I can express my opinion well enough when I have a mind," said Ingeborg sharply; "and as to war, it stands to reason that a Sea-king's daughter must approve of a Sea-king's business.
Now he knew what it was the little girl had been displeased about all this while. He had been unkind to Mad Ingeborg; he should never have refused to let her go along to Portugallia. How could he ever have imagined anything so mean of the great Empress as that she would not want to have Mad Ingeborg with her! It was that kind that she liked best to help. No wonder she was angry!
Then I came home, and then you came along thank you for coming, Miss Ingeborg I might be your father and you're just a child; that's why I say 'Ingeborg. But when you told me all this, I hadn't had any sleep, I wasn't quite balanced not enough to give you advice; I mean, I hadn't quite appreciated But now you can quite safely I'd like to know, of course Is he old? Is he young? Young, of course.
He had on his seaman's jacket with the gold buttons, over which the broad blue collar lay on shoulders and back; the sailor's cap with the short ribbons he was holding in one hand, swinging it carelessly back and forth. Ingeborg kept her elongated eyes cast down, perhaps a little embarrassed by the gaze of the breakfasters.
The point of Vangnæs, a short distance to the westward, is the "Framnæs" of Frithiof's Saga, and I therefore looked towards it with some interest, for the sake of that hero and his northern lily, Ingeborg. There are many bauta-stones still standing on the shore, but one who is familiar with Tegner's poem must not expect to find his descriptions verified, either in scenery or tradition.
She's so overwrought; living on her nerves. And pregnant again. But what splendid resolution she shows, and how she's matured in these two years! But it has cost her a great deal, too. "Good luck to you, Ingeborg, good luck!" At all events, she had triumphed over Schoolmistress Sophie, who had once tried so hard to set Nikolai against her. "Get out!"
Alone she managed and financed the entire establishment, aided only by a little maid-of-all-work, just squeezing out a scanty living for herself and her mother. If ever there was an angel on earth it was Ingeborg Jensen. I tell you, when I see the angels of the Italian masters I feel they are all wrong: I don't want flaxen-haired cherubs to give me an idea of heaven in this hell of a world.
