PROFESSOR RUBEK.

Or the other's.


MAIA.

[Looks around as she is crossing the upland, sees the two sitting by
the brook, and calls out.] Good-night, Professor! Dream of me. Now
I am going off on my adventures!


PROFESSOR RUBEK.

[Calls back to her.] What sort of an adventure is this to be?


MAIA.

[Approaching.] I am going to let life take the place of all the rest.


PROFESSOR RUBEK.

[Mockingly.] Aha! So you too are going to do that, little Maia?


MAIA.
