Madam Rundholmen.

A fine young man?

Stensgård.

One who had long loved you in secret——

Madam Rundholmen.

Oh, come now, Mr. Stensgård, I won’t hear any more of your nonsense.

Stensgård.

You must! A young man who, like yourself, finds it hard to be alone in the world——

Madam Rundholmen.

Well, what then? I don’t understand you at all.
