ABSTRACT
It is first in our human inviolability that each of our countrymen in the King of Norway’s realm shall be inviolable to another, within the country and outside it. And if a person murders someone, they have forfeited everything they owned apart from their allodial lands (óðal) only. Both if a man kills a woman, or a woman a man, unless they commit a shameful killing (skemmðarvíg) or disgraceful act (níðingsverk).
