"But," said Ogmund, "I would venture what I have of my own, so that what I win may be my own without cavil." "That's very fair," said Glum; "and what is it you expect to get out of the voyage?" Ogmund laughed a little, and spoke lightly. "Why," he said, "I expect to get rather more than I give for everything. That is the trader's way, the chapman's way. If he has a piece of goods that breeds no profit, overboard with it. It has not earned its stowage." Now Glum had his lips shut like a trap, and blinked fearfully. "Ah," he said, "and fame, and great report, and the lifted hands of men-what of those?"
