Fairy Monologue from Lucky Pehr

From Lucky Pehr by August Strindberg

You think so? But you shall soon see that all which seems good is not good, and all that seems bad is not bad. (PEHR: Only let me get out--and away from here!) You may go; but first I want to give you, as a help on your journey, a gift which will be of service to you. When you have it, you will have been given more than others, and therefore more will be required of you at some future time. (PEHR: Let me see it!) This ring has the power to grant you all your wishes--to your credit, but to no one's harm.
