Professor Rubek.
And you two are going down there to-morrow?
Maia.
[Throwing herself down among the heather.] Yes, so we have arranged.—Or perhaps we may start this evening.—If you have no objection, that's to say?
Professor Rubek.
I? Far be it from me to
Maia.
[Quickly.] Of course Lars goes with us—with the dogs.
Professor Rubek.
I feel no curiosity as to the movements of Mr. Lars and his dogs. [Changing the subject.] Would you not rather sit properly on the seat?
Maia.
[Drowsily.] No, thank you. I'm lying so delightfully in the soft heather.
Professor Rubek.
I can see that you are tired.
Maia.
[Yawning.] I almost think I'm beginning to feel tired.
