The Grandfather. Your voice is changed, too.
The Father. You are going mad! [He and the Uncle make signs to each other to signify the Grandfather has lost his reason.]
The Grandfather. I can hear quite well that you are afraid.
The Father. But what should we be afraid of?
The Grandfather. Why do you want to deceive me?
The Uncle. Who is thinking of deceiving you?
The Grandfather. Why have you put out the light?
The Uncle. But the light has not been put out; there is as much light as there was before.
The Daughter. It seems to me that the lamp has gone down.
The Father. I see as well now as ever.
