King Skule And if I, who am king and have the might if I were to have you slain, would all the unborn skald-thoughts within you die along with you? Jatgeir My lord, it is a great sin to slay a fair thought. King Skule I ask not if it be a sin: I ask if it be possible! Jatgeir I know not.
Jatgeir They scoff because King Olaf's shrine could not be brought out to the mote-stead when we did you homage; they say it boded ill. King Skule When next I come to Nidaros the shrine shall out!

One night Wayland sat filled with grief and despair at his window, looking out over the sea, when he caught sight of two red lights, bobbing in his direction. He watched them curiously till they vanished beneath the tower; and soon the key of the outer door turned, and two men, whom he knew to be the King's sons, Gram and Skule, talked softly together.

King Skule And whom call you the unsound doubter? Jatgeir He who doubts his own doubt. Jatgeir 'Tis worse; 'tis neither day nor night. I will fight and act, not think.

Thoreau had tried schoolteaching, but he had to give up his position because he would not exercise the birch and ferule. "If the scholars once find out the teacher is not goin' to sting 'em up when they need it, that is an end to the skule," said one of the directors, and he spat violently at a fly, ten feet away.
