Ah! you may imagine, we’ve not had the heart to tell her anything. She has no idea of any danger. Joyous and free from care, and chirping like a little bird flying away into life’s everlasting night. Ah! that is such a crushing blow for me, Gregers. Thanks, thanks, Hedvig. No. No bread and butter just now. Yes, perhaps Gregers will have a piece. Well, you can bring in a little, all the same. If you’ve a crust that’d be nice. And mind you, butter it well.
