Arnholm. I should rather say grand—a glorious view!

Wangel. I daresay you have never been up here before?

Arnholm.

No, never. In my time I doubt if it was accessible. There wasn't even a footpath.

Wangel.

And no grounds laid out either. We have done all that in the last few years.

Boletta.

Over there, on the Pilot's Knoll, the view is even finer.

Wangel.

Shall we go there, Ellida?

Ellida.

[Seats herself upon a stone to the right.] Thank you, I won't go. But you others ought to. I shall stay here in the meantime.

Wangel.

Very well; then I'll stay with you. The girls can do the honours for Arnholm.

Boletta. Do you care to come with us, Mr. Arnholm?

Arnholm.

Yes, I should like to. Is there a path up there too?
