DAUGHTER. Why did you want to hide?
STRANGER. Ask me as little as possible! You've grown into a big girl. And I've gone grey.
DAUGHTER. No. You're not grey. You're just as young as you were when we parted.
STRANGER. When we... parted!
DAUGHTER. When you left us.... (The STRANGER does not reply.) Aren't you glad we're meeting again?
STRANGER (faintly). Yes!
DAUGHTER. Then show it.
STRANGER. How can I be glad, when we're parting to-day for life?
DAUGHTER. Why, where do you want to go?
STRANGER (pointing to the monastery). Up there!
