When the Dew Falleth
SIMAH Now show me how you would act if you were to get angry with me.
ASHER I will never be angry with you.
SIMAH No. I don’t like it that way. One should get angry, so that one can make up again.
ASHER If I ever did get angry, I never would make up again.
SIMAH What do you mean?
ASHER I ask you—what do you mean?
SIMAH Why wouldn’t you make up with me again? ASHER Why should you get angry with me?
SIMAH Just so. A wife must get angry once in a while. She must! Now do you understand? Why, if I were never to get angry with you—Oh, go. You don’t know anything...
ASHER How do you know about such things? sIMAH (fillips him under the nose) Get mad! ASHER (kisses her)
I love you.
