" We of Ivarsdale do not profess such obedience, King Edmund. That is for thanes and for the unfree, who owe their all to your generosity. Our land we hold as our fathers held it from God's bounty and the might of our swords. When we have paid the three taxes of fort-building and bridge-building and field-service, we have paid all that we owe to the State. " At last they stood defined, the first of the feudal lords and the last of the odal-born men. Even through the King's loftiness it was sudd...enly borne in that, be- hind the insignificance of the revolt, loomed a mighty principle, mighty enough to merit force. For the first time he stooped to a threat, though still it was tinged with scorn.
" I observe that the men of your race have not been of great importance in the land. It appears that 114 AS THE NORNS DECREE Ethelred was able to do without the rebel Lord of Ivarsdale. " " I admit that he was able to lose his crown with- out him, " the rebel's son retorted swiftly.
The King's wounded dignity bled in his cheeks; he was stung into a movement that brought him to his feet.
