FIFTEENTH SCENE.
The previous. BRANDT and LOUISE, who come in from one of the garden
paths, the latter with uncovered hair and HANNE's blue shawl on.
BRANDT.
(who attempts to hold his wife back. Aside to her).
Are you going to disturb them now?
It is no disturbance . . . on the contrary!
(aside, when she sees LOUISE).
Thank goodness, there is my sister.
(Hurries over to her.)
(to BRANDT, who approaches).
LOUISE.
HANNE
ADOLF.
Oh, Brandt, your wife is an angel, a treasure, a pearl!
Yes, do I not deserve credit for my choice?
BRANDT.
ADOLF.
So charming! and shy and modest like a girl of 16.
