[Bareheaded, in indoor dress, enters and slops near the door.] H'm——!

Hedvig.

[Turns and goes towards him.] Good morning. Please come in.

Gregers.

Thank you. [Looking towards the garret.] You seem to have workpeople in the house.

Hedvig.

No, it is only father and grandfather. I'll tell them you are here.

Gregers.

No no, don’t do that; I would rather wait a little.
