Michaelis.

What do you mean by your old life?

Rhoda.

She breaks out impulsively.

I mean—I mean—. Three days ago I was like one dead! I walked and ate and did my daily tasks, but—I wondered sometimes why people didn't see that I was dead, and scream at me.

Michaelis.

It was three days ago that I first saw you.

Rhoda.

Yes.

Michaelis.
