I want to know." "Then," answered the girl straightly, after the honest and downright fashion of all her dealings, "I'm afraid you are are too soft. You don't pack a gun. I'm afraid you wouldn't use it if you did." There was a certain finality about the short speech, as if she had put the last word of condemnation to his estate. Kenset looked down at his hands, spread them out a bit.

Astonished though he was at her sudden unfolding of herself, Brian looked at her gravely, his blue eyes very soft as he pierced to her thought. "Yes," he said gently, "you are a woman, Bird Daughter and if you were a man I think that you might have gain, but others would have great loss." "Eh?" She looked straightly at him, unfearing his half-expressed thought.
Fain was Gunnar Gold to lay down All wrongs to atone for, And Hogni in likewise; Then she asked who was fain Of faring straightly, The steed to saddle To set forth the wain, The horse to back, And the hawk to fly, To shoot forth the arrow From out the yew-bow.
