THE NATIVITY
Two Women.
Shepherds.
Kings.
Child Angels.
The Holy Family.
Scene.—A stable. The door shut on it. The dawn of day is rising, and the colours of morning coming. Two women come in—a woman of them from the east, and a woman from the west, and they tired from the journey. There is a branch of a cherry tree in the hand of one of them, and a flock of flax in the hand of the other of them.
The First Woman. God be with you!
