I? But I told you I was a writer. But what made you think of that?
Miss
Because you said the piece you are playing is your own.
Poet
Yes … perhaps it is, perhaps it isn’t. But that doesn’t matter. Well? Anyway it doesn’t matter who composed it, if only it is beautiful. Don’t you agree?
Miss
Of course … it must be beautiful … that’s the chief thing!—
