What? 'Tis violence that you did to me! You confused me! You broke me down! You pounced on me like a wild beast! I know! I tried to get out by the door! An' you took hold an' you rent my bodice an' my skirt! I bled!

_BERND and AUGUST appear on the scene. After them KLEINERT and GOLISCH and the other field hands._
BERND
[_Close to STRECKMANN._] What's all this? What did you do to my la.s.s?
AUGUST
[_Pulls BERND back and thrusts himself forward._] 'Tis my place, father.

STRECKMANN
[_Lifts his arm and strikes AUGUST full in the face._] There's my answer!
That's what I did!
KLEINERT
Streckmann!
OLD MRS. GOLISCH
Catch hold o' August! He's fallin'!
HEAD MAID
[_Supports the falling man._] August!
BERND
[_Paying no attention to AUGUST, but addressing STRECKMANN:_] You'll have to account for this! It'll be brought home to you!
STRECKMANN
What? On account o' that there wench that's common to anybody as wants her....
[_Withdraws._
BERND
What was that he said ...?
KLEINERT
