Ever merry, ever friendly, and so attached to the village! Poor man, it is a long time since he was there!
ADELAIDE.
Don't speak of it!
KORB.
He will ask me about everything—about the farming—
ADELAIDE (eagerly).

ADELAIDE.
Especially about the lilac-bush where my arbor now stands. Be sure you tell him about that.
