Aagot. The whole way! (She is carrying her hat in her hand, appears hot and sunburnt, and bears evident signs of laving made a long journey on foot. She takes off a knapsack which she has been carrying on her back.) I washed in a brook to-day and used it as a looking-glass as well!
Leonarda. Have you been walking all night?
Aagot. No; I slept for a little while at Opsal, but I was out by sunrise. It was lovely!
Leonarda. And I have just been arranging to send and fetch you.
Aagot. Really? Well, they can fetch my things. I could not wait any longer.
Leonarda. You look so well.
Aagot. Oh, that is because I am so sunburnt.
Leonarda. You are feeling all right again, then—now?
Aagot. Splendid, aunt! All that is over, now.—I have had a letter from grandmother.
Leonarda. Was that letter from her that I sent on to you? I could not make out whom it was from.
