MARTIN DOURAS
I don't doubt but it is.
MATT
Look at the young apple-trees, Ellen. Walking up this morning,
I felt as glad of them as a young man would be glad of the
sweetheart he saw coming towards him.
ELLEN
Ay, there's great gladness and shine in the day.
MATT
It seems to trouble you.
ELLEN
It does trouble me.
MATT
Why?
ELLEN Everything seems to be saying, "There's something here, there's something going."
MATT Ay, a day like this often makes you feel that way. It's a great day for the purchase though. How many years ought we to offer, Ellen?
Martin goes out.
ELLEN
Twenty years, I suppose—-(suddenly) Matt!
