Lyngstrand.

Well, I’m what you might call a little bit of an invalid. Nothing to speak of, you know. It’s only a sort of short-windedness in my chest.

Ballested.

Pooh—a mere trifle. Still, I would consult a good doctor, if I were you.

Lyngstrand.

I thought, if I could find an opportunity, I might speak to Dr. Wangel.

Ballested.

Yes, do. [Looks out to the left.] Here comes another steamer. Chock full of passengers. It’s extraordinary how the tourist business has increased here during the last few years.
