Part 38 (2/2)

_The Shepherd Boy._

Are you through milking already?

_Bjrg._

Can't you see for yourself?

_The Shepherd Boy._

Oh, pshaw! (_His eyes light on the lumber piles. He bends down and begins to count the knots in the wood._) One, two, three--

_Enter Sveinungi from the ”badstofa.”_

_Sveinungi._

What do you say, girls? Quite a pack, isn't it?

_Bjrg._

I should say so!

_Sveinungi (to Helgi)._

You've begun to undo the strappings? That's fine. And here come the others.

_Enter Jon and Indridi from the house. Jon is somewhat intoxicated._

_Jon._

Here stands our dear master. Good day to you, Rannveig! Good day!

_Bjrg and Rannveig._

Good day, and welcome home!

_Sveinungi (laughing)._

Why don't you put your arms around the girls and give them a kiss? Are you afraid?

_Jon._

No, Jon isn't afraid.

_Sveinungi._

You didn't get anything with your coffee. [_Runs into the house._

_Jon._
