Have you got a horse?

VILLAGE HEADSMAN

No.

HARRY

Then Smith’s mare will have to carry you both.

CAPTAIN WRIGHT

(quietly)

The poor mare – a hysterical damsel and a fat man together on her back.

Everyone mounts their horses and rides away.

EXT-VILLAGE CHURCH GARDEN – SUMMER DAY, TEACHER’S MEMORIES

BEGINNING OF THE MEMORIES

The yard is planted with garlic flowers. The teacher goes by the white flowers to the church, holding his nose with his hand.

INT – IN THE VILLAGE CHURCH – SAME DAY

The teacher enters the village church.

It is ornamented with crosses and lined with wreathes of garlic over the windows and doors.

CHURCH WATCHMAN (aka Petro in his old age, 60 years old) stands on a ladder and fixes a wreath of white garlic flowers above the entrance door from the inside.

Heinrich sorts mistletoe crosses

TEACHER

How are you, Heinrich?

HEINRICH

(sorting crosses)

So far, so good.

TEACHER

(comes up to Heinrich)

And what about your neck?

HEINRICH

(touches a bandage on his neck)

Scratched, the wounds are not healing well.

CHURCH WATCHMAN

(comes off the ladder)

And they wouldn’t heal, until she bites somebody else.

The teacher turns to the entrance door and points to the wreaths of white flowers

TEACHER

What is it?

CHURCH WATCHMAN

She doesn’t like it!

TEACHER

(wrinkles his nose)

I guess, me too.

Heinrich looks askance at the teacher

TEACHER

(continues)

I’ve heard your stories. Can the dead rise from their coffins?

CHURCH WATCHMAN

(takes the ladder away from the entrance and puts it in the corner)

You are still young, wait till you get to my age.

TEACHER

(turns to Heinrich)

Do you really believe in that too?

Heinrich sorts crosses in silence and hides his eyes
