Then just go and find them for me. I might perhaps glance over them, after all.

[Happy.] Oh yes, please do!

For your sake, Kaia dear. Now, let me have them at once, please.

[KAIA hurries into the draughtsmen's office, searches anxiously
in the table-drawer, finds a portfolio and brings it with her.

Here are all the drawings.

Good. Put them down there on the table.

[Putting down the portfolio.] Good night, then. [Beseechingly.] And please, please think kindly of me.

Oh, that I always do. Good-night, my dear little Kaia. [Glances to the right.] Go, go now!

MRS. SOLNESS and DR. HERDAL enter by the door on the right.
He is a stoutish, elderly man, with a round, good-humoured
face, clean shaven, with thin, light hair, and gold spectacles.

[Still in the doorway.] Halvard, I cannot keep the doctor any longer.
