Helena

You should not have come when I called you. [She goes to Alquist's writing desk.] Look, Primus. What are all these figures?

Primus

[Examining an anatomical book]: This is the book the old man is always reading.

Helena

I do not understand those things. [She goes to window.] Primus, look!

Primus

Helena

The sun is rising.

Primus

[Still reading the book]: I believe this is the most important thing in the world. This is the secret of life.

Helena

Do come here.

Primus

In a moment, in a moment.
