Rosmer.

I understand. Then if I openly confess my apostasy, you dare not have anything to do with me?

Mortensgård.

[Shaking his head.] I scarcely like to risk it, Pastor Rosmer. I have made it a rule for some time past not to support any one or anything that is actively opposed to the Church.

Rosmer.

Then you have yourself returned to the Church?

Mortensgård.

That concerns no one but myself.

Rosmer.

Ah, so that is it. Now I understand you.
