Common! No, should think not! We’ve got tumblers, and we’ve a few pouters, too. But come here! Can you see those hutches out there by the wall?---- (GREGERS: Yes. But what do you use them for?) The rabbits go in there in the night, my lad. (GREGERS: Why, you’ve rabbits, too, then?) Yes. Deuce take it, you might know we should have rabbits! He wants to know if we’ve got rabbits, Hjalmar!--H’m! But now the real thing’s coming, you know. Now then! Out of the way, Hedvig. Come and stand here; that’s it--and look down there. Don’t you see anything there in the basket filled with straw?
