GANDALF.
Jeg kender loven vel så godt som I;
men var det ej fra gamle tider skik
og vedtægt mellem os, at når en frænde
for fiendehånd blev fældet, og hans lig
lå ubegravet, som et rov for ravnen,
så måtte blodhævn til?
GANDALF.
I know the law perhaps as well as you;
But is there not since days of old a law
And covenant with us that when a kinsman
Falls slain before the enemy and his corpse
Unburied lies a prey unto the raven,
Blood vengeance must be had?
