He wondered again and again what relationship, if any, this half-crazed being bore to the bonde and his daughter. That he knew all about them was pretty evident; but how? Catching sight of the pansies left on the deck bench, Errington took them, and, descending to the saloon, set them on the table in a tumbler of water.
Errington, not desiring any further prolongation of the scene, managed to draw the irate bonde away, saying in a low tone "We've had enough of this, sir! Let us get home to Thelma." "I was about to suggest a move," added Lorimer. "We are only wasting time here." "Ah!" exclaimed Duprez radiantly "and Monsieur Dyceworthy will be glad to be in bed! He will be very stiff to-morrow, I am sure!
The sledge glided more slowly between the even lines of upright giant trees, crowned with icicles and draped in snow, the bonde involuntarily loosened the reins of his elfin steeds, and again returned to those painful and solemn musings, from which the stinging blow of the tempest had for a moment roused him. The proud heart of the old man ached bitterly. What!
For I loved you, proud Olaf! I loved you " The bonde uttered an exclamation of incredulous astonishment. Lovisa fixed her eyes on him with a dark scorn. "Yes, I loved you, scoffer and unbeliever as you were and are! accursed of God and man!
As for Ture and his men, they managed to escape from the place where they had been left for safe keeping, and made their way to Denmark. Meanwhile Sir Tord Bonde was kept busy, for King Christian of Denmark several times invaded the land. On each occasion he was met by the valiant defender of West Gothland and driven out with loss.
I watched her for sixteen years and when she reached her seventeenth birthday, I married her and brought her to Norway." "And she was Thelma's mother?" said Errington with interest. "She was Thelma's mother," returned the bonde, "and she was more beautiful than even Thelma is now.
"Has Odin so endowed thee that thou shouldst boast of him? Listen to me, Olaf Gueldmar I have but little strength remaining, and I must speak briefly. Thy wife " "What of her?" said the bonde hastily. "Thou knewst her not." "I knew her," said Lovisa steadily, "as the lightning knows the tree it withers as the sea knows the frail boat it wrecks for sport on a windy day. Thou haughty Olaf!
All causes are brought afore the iudges, who heare the parties, and punysshe the offenders diligently. Ther is no slauery amonge them. Yea, thei haue a certaine ordinaunce, that none shalbe slaue or bonde amonge them, but all fre, and of equalle aucthoritie and honour.
Clasping with a tender reverence the hands that upheld the goblet, he bent his handsome head and drank a deep draught, while his dark curls almost touched her fair ones, and then an insane jealousy possessed him for a moment, as he watched her go through the same ceremony with Lorimer. She next carried the now more than half-emptied cup to the bonde, and said as she held it, laughing softly
He waited for the young man to speak, and finding they remained silent, he glanced at them half angrily and again repeated his words "I am the bonde, Olaf Gueldmar. Speak your business and take your departure; my time is brief!" Lorimer looked up with his usual nonchalance, a faint smile playing about his lips.
