Then they rode unto the king's hall, and King Atli arrayed his host for battle, and the ranks were so set forth that a certain wall there was betwixt them and the brethren. "Welcome hither," said he. "Deliver unto me that plenteous gold which is mine of right; even the wealth which Sigurd once owned, and which is now Gudrun's of right."
'This hard plaited matting what a lovely colour it is, the colour of cool light! And it seemed to her perfect.

A deep flush dyed Gudrun's cheek.
He tarried in Micklegarth very many winters, and was thought to be the most valiant in all deeds that try a man, and always went next to those in the forefront. The Varangians accounted Bolli most highly of whilst he was with them in Micklegarth. Thorkell Eyjolfson goes to Norway His and Gudrun's son, Gellir, grew up there at home, and was early both a manly fellow and winning.
All these things, however, riches, pride of social standing, handsome physique, were externals. When it came to the relation with a woman such as Gudrun, he, Loerke, had an approach and a power that Gerald never dreamed of. How should Gerald hope to satisfy a woman of Gudrun's calibre?

And again, as on the night when he drank the potion that Queen Grimhild brewed, he became as one whose wits are astray.
The great rafters in the red-ribbed hall Flashed crimson in the fitful flame Of smouldering logs; And from the stealthy shadows That crept 'round Harald's throne Rang out a Skald's strong voice With tales of battles won: Of Gudrun's love And Sigurd, Siegmund's son."
There passed through Gudrun's mind Blake's representation of the soul of a flea. She wanted to fit it to Loerke. Blake was a clown too. But it was necessary to answer Gerald. 'Don't you think the understanding of a flea is more interesting than the understanding of a fool? she asked. 'A fool! he repeated.
