ELEONORA. Well, help us then.
LINDKVIST. Child, I can't help your father in his sentence. I can't help Benjamin in his Latin. But everything else is helped already. Life doesn't give everything, and nothing is given for nothing. Therefore you must help me,--will you?
ELEONORA. Poor me, what can I do?
LINDKVIST. What is the date today?
ELEONORA. Why, it's the sixteenth.
LINDKVIST. Good. Before the twentieth you must, have your brother Elis make a call on the Governor, and you must get him to write a letter to Peter.
ELEONORA. Is that all?
LINDKVIST. Oh, you dear child! But if he neglects these things the giant will come again and say muh, muh!
ELEONORA. Why should the giant come and scare children?
LINDKVIST. So that the children will be good.
ELEONORA. That's true. The giant is right. [She kisses Lindkvist's coat sleeve.] Thanks, dear giant.
LINDKVIST. You should say _Mr._ Giant, I should think.
ELEONORA. Oh, no. That's not your real name--
LINDKVIST [Laughing]. Good-bye, children. Now you can throw the rod in the fire.
ELEONORA. No, we must keep it. Children are so forgetful.
LINDKVIST. How well you know children, little one![He goes out.]
ELEONORA. We are going to the country, Benjamin. Within two months! Oh, if the time would only pa.s.s quickly. [She takes calendar and tears the pages off one by one.] April, May, June, and the sun is s.h.i.+ning on them all. Now you must thank G.o.d, who helped us to the country.
BENJAMIN [Bashfully]. Can't I say my thanks in silence?
ELEONORA. Yes, you can say it in silence, for now the clouds are gone, and it can be heard up there.
[Christine has entered from L. and stopped. Elis and Mrs. Heyst from R.
Christine and Elis start to meet each other with loving smiles. Before they meet--]
CURTAIN.
