Three years after Thorfinn and Einar began clearing the forest, they finish cutting down all the trees. Learning they will soon be free, they discuss their futures. Meanwhile, Canute, conqueror of England, visits Jelling, the royal capital of Denmark.
It was rather mischievous of you to appear 
in the middle of the afternoon, King Sweyn.
كان من المزعج أن تظهر 
.في منتصف النّهار أيّها الملك سفين
Dass Ihr Euch nun
auch am Tage zeigt …
No me gustó nada que aparecieras
en pleno día, rey Sweyn.
No me ha gustado que aparecieras
en pleno día, rey Sweyn.
En me visitant en pleine journée,
अब दोपहर के वक़्त में भी दिखाई देकर
Non sarà troppo impertinente
 apparire in pieno giorno, Re Sweyn?
Foi bem travesso da sua parte
aparecer no meio da tarde, Rei Sueno.
Уж и средь бела дня показываетесь?
Не слишком ли вы заигрались, король Свен?
