The Grandfather. Ursula, tell me the truth, for the love of God!
The Eldest Daughter. Grandfather! Grandfather! what is the matter with you?
The Grandfather. Something has happened! I am sure my daughter is worse!...
The Uncle. Are you dreaming?
The Grandfather. You do not want to tell me!... I can see quite well there is something....
The Uncle. In that case you can see better than we can.
The Grandfather. Ursula, tell me the truth!
The Daughter. But we have told you the truth, grandfather!
The Grandfather. You do not speak in your ordinary voice.
The Father. That is because you frighten her.
