Part 21 - Ogmund Skoptason's Proceedings

Then came Ogmund Skoptason to the king; and when he came before him he produced his errand, and begged the king to do what was right and proper towards him and his father.

The king insisted that the right was on his side, and said they were

"particularly impudent."

Then said Ogmund,

"It is a very easy thing for thee, having the power, to do me and my father injustice; and I must say the old proverb is true, that one whose life you save gives none, or a very bad return. This I shall add, that never again shall I come into thy service; nor my father, if I can help it."

Then Ogmund went home, and they never saw each other again.
