It's about the thousand crowns ...
HENSCHEL Before we says any more, Mr. Siebenhaar. You c'n just keep that money till winter. Why should I be lyin' to you? You see? I don't need the money. I don't care exackly when I gets it; an' that it's safe, I'm satisfied o' that. SIEBENHAAR Well, Henschel, in that case I'm very grateful to you. You're doing me a great favour. During the summer I take in money; you know that. Just now it would have been difficult for me. HENSCHEL Well, you see, so we c'n agree fine. [_Pause._] SIEBENHAAR. [_Walking to and fro._] Yes, yes, I sometimes wonder over myself. I grew up in this house. And yet, to-day, if I could but make a decent closing out, I could leave it quite calmly. HENSCHEL I wouldn't like to go, I must say. I wouldn't hardly know where to go to. |
