Text Appearing Before Image:
is liege lord in every undertaking ? If so, Sieg-fried has but done his duty, and you owe him nothing.But you have not told me all. You have deceived me,and you would fain deceive me again. You have asecret, and I will find it out. The king made no answer, but walked silently andthoughtfully away. It happened one evening, not long thereafter, thatthe two queens sat together at an upper window, andlooked down upon a company of men in the courtyardbelow. Among them were the noblest earl-folk ofBurgundy, and Gunther the king, and Siegfried. ButSiegfried towered above all the rest; and he movedlike a god among men. See my noble Siegfried! cried Kriemhild in herpride. How grandly he stands there ! What a typeof manly beauty and strength! No one cares to lookat other men when he is near. He may be handsome, answered Brunhild sadly ; and, for aught I know, he may be noble. But whatis all that by the side of kingly power ? Were he butthe peer of your brother Gunther, then you might wellboast.
Text Appearing After Image:
How tke Mischief began to Brew. 257 He is the peer of Gunther, returned Kriemhild.And not only his peer, but more; for he.stands ashigh above him in kingly power and worth as in bodilystature. How can that be ? asked Brunhild, growing angry.For, when Gunther so gallantly won me at Isenstein,he told me that Siegfried was his vassal; and oftensince that time I have heard the same. And even yourhusband told me that Gunther was his liege lord. Queen Kriemhild laughed at these words, and an-swered, I tell you again that Siegfried is a king farnobler and richer and higher than any other king onearth. Think you that my brothers would have givenme to a mere vassal to be his wife ? Then Brunhild, full of wrath, replied, Your hus-band is Gunthers vassal and my own, and he shall dohomage to us as the humblest and meanest of ourunderlings. He shall not go from this place until hehas paid all the tribute that has so long been due fromhim. Then we shall see who is the vassal, and who isthe lord. Na
