MATS. Brita with the evil eye?
KERSTI. Can't you blind it?
MATS. Not I! The only one who can is Jesus Christ!
A church-bell sounds the call to even-song.
KERSTI. Fray for me!
MATS. One must do that for oneself.
KERSTI. But suppose you can't?
MATS. You can if your conscience is clear.
KERSTI. But when is it?
MATS. Do you hear the even-song bell?
