Werle (after a short pause). Are you going up to the Works again?
Gregers. No, I consider myself as having left your service.
Werle. But what shall you do then?
Gregers. Only fulfill the mission of my life; nothing else.
Werle. Yes, but afterwards? What will you live on?
Gregers. I have put by a little out of my salary.
Werle. And how long will that last!
Gregers. I think it will last my time.
Werle. What do you mean by that?
Gregers. I will answer nothing more now.
