Alfred. Of course we have!
Svava. And lots of other things as well.
Alfred. I have a most important question to ask you.
Svava. Have you?
Alfred. Perhaps you will find the answer by the time I come back.
Svava. It can't be so very difficult, then!
Alfred. Indeed it is. But sometimes you have inspirations.
Svava. What is it?
Alfred. Why did we two not find each other many years ago?
Svava. Because we were not ready for it, of course!
