He is dying.

[Pause.]

Take him up, men. And you, Mr. Stein—this here is a nest of murderers.
Come along. There are others about here lying in ambush. Just now we met
Weiler with a gun—that vicious fellow. He was out spying, that's clear.
It is a regular hunt. Come along! But, for heaven's sake, why will you
not—

ROBERT.

Never mind! Go ahead.

MÖLLER.

But what do you intend to do? And your father—if I leave you alone in danger—if I do not bring you home with me! How will he ever believe me, that I tried to persuade you?

ROBERT.

Why, you have witnesses here with you. When I say a thing I mean it—I am going to stay here.

[Walks up and down in agitation.]
