A pair of ugly horns, just like yours, yes.
Can you see the poor little horns I have?
Yes, I seem to see them quite plainly.
[Taking the dogs' leash out of his pocket.] Then I had better see about tying you.
Have you gone quite mad? Would you tie me?
If I am a demon, let me be a demon! So that's the way of it! You can see the horns, can you?
[Soothingly.] There, there, there! Now try to behave nicely, Mr. Ulfheim. [Breaking off.] But what has become of that hunting-castle of yours, that you boasted so much of? You said it lay somewhere hereabouts.
[Points with a flourish to the hut.] There you have it, before your very eyes.
[Looks at him.] That old pig-stye!
[Laughing in his beard.] It has harboured more than one king's daughter, I can tell you.
