William, come here. Read to me. There in the Bible, begin where the book-mark is.
WILLIAM.
In the middle of the chapter?
FORESTER.
Beginning at the mark there. Go on!
[_Gets his hat_.]
WILLIAM (_reads_).
"And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, he shall--"
FORESTER.
That isn't it.
[_Hangs the gun over his shoulder_.]
WILLIAM.
"And he that killeth any man"--is that it?
FORESTER (_profoundly moved, comes a step nearer_).
No--but go on reading.
[_He stands next to_ WILLIAM. _During the following he involuntarily takes off his hat, and folds his hands_.]
WILLIAM.
"And he that killeth any man shall surely be put to death. And he that killeth a beast shall make it good; beast for beast. And if a man cause a blemish on his neighbor; as he hath done, so shall it be done to him; breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again. And he that killeth a beast, he shall restore it: and he that killeth a man, he shall be put to death."
FORESTER.
He shall be put to death.
WILLIAM.
"Ye shall have one manner of law, as well for the stranger, as for one of your own country: for I am the Lord your G.o.d."
FORESTER.
Amen.
[_Puts on his hat and is about to go; turns back_.]
When did she say they might be there, William?
[Ill.u.s.tration: SCHNORR VON CAROLSFELD JACOB AND RACHEL AT THE WELL]
WILLIAM.
The soldiers?
FORESTER.
Before--
WILLIAM.
Before one o'clock.
FORESTER.
There's time enough.
WILLIAM.
For what, father?
FORESTER.
For--getting a sound sleep.
WILLIAM.
Father, how strangely you look at me?
FORESTER.
Go to bed, William.
[_As_ SOPHY _enters_.]
Shake hands with your mother.
SOPHY (_surprised_).
Are you going out now, Christian?
FORESTER.
Yes.
SOPHY.
