Danish landowner Ketil instructs his slave Einar to work with Thorfinn to clear a vast forest.
Einar is surprised and pleased to learn he can purchase his own freedom if the value of the harvest taken from the land he cultivates exceeds his own. However, Thorfinn's express remains as dark as ever.
We leave long stumps so
the livestock can eat them.
.علينا ترك سيقان طويلة لتقتات عليها الماشية
Wir lassen die Stoppeln so lang,
damit es was zum Fressen hat!
On laisse une certaine longueur à l’éteule
pour que le bétail puisse manger !
आपण मोठी झुडप या साठी सोडतो
जेणेकरून गोराढोरां नंतर खातायावीत.
Lasciamo apposta lo stelo più lungo
Deixamos os caules longos para
que, depois, o gado possa comer!
