Serving-men and Maidens at Solhoug.


The action passes at Solhoug in the Fourteenth Century.

Pronunciation of Names: Gudmund = Goodmoond. The g in "Margit" and in "Gesling" is hard, as in "go," or, in "Gesling," it may be pronounced as y—"Yesling." The first o in "Solhoug" ought to have the sound of a very long "oo."
