!NOTE: Royal & Noble Genealogical Data On the

Rolf plundered much in the East sea. One summer, as he was coming from the eastward on a viking's expedition to the coast of Viken, he landed there and made a cattle foray. As King Harald happened, just at that time, to be in Viken, he heard of it, and was in a great rage; for he had now forbid the plundering within the bounds of the country. The king assembled a Thing, and had Rolf declared an outlaw over all Norway. 

     When Rolf's mother heard of it she hastened to the king, and entreated peace for Rolf; but the king was so enraged that here entreaty was of no avail. Then she spoke up:

"Do you think, King Harald, in your anger, To drive away my brave Rolf Ganger Like a mad wolf, from out the land? Why is your cruelty so fell? Think twice, king, it's ill With such a wolf at wolf to play, Who, driven to the wild woods away May make the king's best deer his prey."
