MAIA.
[Looking significantly at him.] Henceforth I shall go my own ways.
[She descends form the hillock and leaps over the brook, by aid of her alpenstock. She stops beside IRENE.
MAIA.
Professor Rubek is up there, waiting for you, madam.
IRENE.
What does he want?
MAIA.
He wants you to help him to open a casket that has snapped to.
IRENE.
Can I help him in that?
MAIA.
He says you are the only person that can.
IRENE.
Then I must try.
MAIA.
Yes, you really must, madam.
[She goes down by the path to the hotel.
[In a little while PROFESSOR RUBEK comes down to IRENE, but stops with the brook between them.
IRENE.
[After a short pause.] She--the other one--said that you had been waiting for me.
PROFESSOR RUBEK.
I have waited for you year after year--without myself knowing it.
IRENE.
I could not come to you, Arnold. I was lying down there, sleeping the long, deep, dreamful sleep.
PROFESSOR RUBEK.
But now you have awakened, Irene!
IRENE.
[Shakes her head.] I have the heavy, deep sleep still in my eyes.
PROFESSOR RUBEK.
You shall see that day will dawn and lighten for us both.
IRENE.
Do not believe that.
PROFESSOR RUBEK.
[Urgently.] I do believe it! And I know it! Now that I have found you again--
IRENE.
Risen from the grave.
PROFESSOR RUBEK.
Transfigured!
IRENE.
Only risen, Arnold. Not transfigured.
