FOUNTAIN GHOST
Welcome, thou and thy white lady to these…haunts.
Wander at will. I have scared away the sons of flesh.
GHOST OF RAFI
How were they scared, those two?
FOUNTAIN GHOST When the water turned from white to red their faces turned from red to white. They ran!
GHOST HIDDEN IN THE TREES
Ha! ha!
GHOST OF PERVANEH
Tell us, O Man of the Fountain, what shall we do?
FOUNTAIN GHOST
Nothing: you are dead.
GHOST OF PERVANEH Shall we stay in this garden and be lovers still, and fly in the air and flit among the leaves?
FOUNTAIN GHOST As long as you remember what you suffered, you will stay near the house where your blood was shed.
GHOST OF PERVANEH
We will remember that ten thousand years.
FOUNTAIN GHOST
You have forgotten that you are a Spirit.
The memories of the dead are thinner than their dreams.
