Grandmother. No, thank you. (CORNELIA goes out at the back.)
Hagbart. Dear, good grandmother! You are the only one here who understands me!
Grandmother (trying to look round the room). Are we alone?
Hagbart. Yes.
Grandmother. Has your uncle called on Mrs. Falk?
Hagbart. No, worse luck; he has written her a letter.
Grandmother. I thought as much.
Hagbart. Isn't it shameful, grandmother! He won't see her once, or talk to her, before judging her.
Grandmother. They are all alike, these—. Are we alone?
Hagbart. Yes, grandmother.
Grandmother. You must have patience, Hagbart! You used to be patient.
Hagbart. Yes, grandmother.
Grandmother. I have seen so many generations—so many different ways of behaving. In my day we were tolerant.
Hagbart. I enjoyed reading your books so much, grand mother!
Grandmother. Of course you did.—Are we alone?
Hagbart. Yes, grandmother.
Grandmother. I am quite in love with your fiancée, Hagbart. She is like what girls were in my day.
Hagbart. Courageous, weren't they?
Grandmother. Yes, and independent. They seem quite different nowadays.—Are we alone?
Hagbart. Yes.
Grandmother. You get married—and I will come and live with you and her. Hush!
Hagbart. Do you mean it?
Grandmother. Hush! (Looks out of the window.) There is Justice Röst coming, with his wife. Go and tell your uncle!
Hagbart. Yes.
Grandmother. I might have expected it. They came up from the country yesterday.
Hagbart. Good-bye, then, grandmother!
Grandmother. Good-bye, my boy! (HAGBART goes out to the right. The door at the back is opened. CORNELIA ushers in RÖST and MRS. RÖST.)
Cornelia. Please walk in!
Mrs. Röst. Thank you! You must excuse us for calling so early. We came up from the country yesterday, and my husband has to go to the courts for a little while!
Röst. I have to go to the courts to-day. (The BISHOP conies in from the right.)
Bishop. Welcome!
Röst and Mrs. Röst. Thank you!
Mrs. Röst. You must excuse our calling so early; but we came up from the country yesterday, and my husband has to go to the courts to-day.
Röst. I have to go to the courts for a little while.
Bishop. I know.
Mrs. Röst. And there is the old lady in her chair already!
Röst. Good morning, my dear madam!
Mrs. Röst. Good morning!—No, please don't get up!
Grandmother. Oh, I can get up still.
Röst. Ah, I wish I were as active as you!
Mrs. Röst. My husband was saying to Miss Cornelia only last night—
Grandmother. You need not strain yourself so. I can hear perfectly well. (The others exchange glances.)
Röst. I was saying to Miss Cornelia only last night—we met for a few moments after the service—
Grandmother. I know, I know.
Röst. I said I had never known any one of over ninety have all their faculties so remarkably clear—
Mrs. Röst.—so remarkably clear as yours! And such good health, too! My husband has suffered a great deal from asthma lately.
Röst. I have suffered a great deal from asthma lately.
Mrs. Röst. And I from a heart trouble, which—
Grandmother. We did not know anything about such ailments in my day.
Mrs. Röst. Isn't she sweet! She doesn't remember that people were sometimes ill in her day.
Hagbart. Dear, good grandmother! You are the only one here who understands me!
Grandmother (trying to look round the room). Are we alone?
Hagbart. Yes.
