Arnholm Monologue from The Lady from the Sea

From The Lady from the Sea by Henrik Ibsen

male · contemplative · 42 sec

When I last crossed your path--out at Skjoldviken, I mean--Hm! That is long ago now. (Ellida: It's quite ten years since you were there with us.) Yes, about that. But when I think of you out there in the lighthouse! The heathen, as the old clergyman called you, because your father had named you, as he said, after an old ship, and hadn't given you a name fit for a Christian. (Ellida: Well, what then?) The last thing I should then have believed was that I should see you again down here as the wife of Wangel.
