WENDLA.
He stands third in his cla.s.s.
THEA.
Professor Knochenbruch says he can be first if he wants.
MARTHA.
He has a beautiful brow, but his friend has a soulful look.
THEA.
Moritz Stiefel?----He's a stupid!
MARTHA.
I've always gotten along well with him.
THEA.
He disgraces anybody who is with him. At Rilow's party he offered me some bon-bons. Only think, Wendla, they were soft and warm. Isn't that----? He said he had kept them too long in his trouser's pocket.
WENDLA.
Only think, Melchi Gabor told me once that he didn't believe anything----not in G.o.d, not in a hereafter----in anything more in this world.
SCENE FOURTH.
_A park in front of the grammar school. Melchior, Otto, George, Robert, Hans Rilow and Lammermeier._
MELCHIOR.
Can any of you say where Moritz Stiefel is keeping himself?
GEORGE.
It may go hard with him!----Oh, it may go hard with him!
OTTO.
He'll keep on until he gets caught dead to rights.
LAEMMERMEIER.
Lord knows, I wouldn't want to be in his skin at this moment!
ROBERT.
What cheek! What insolence!
MELCHIOR.
Wha----Wha----what do you know?
GEORGE.
What do we know?----Now, I tell you----
LAEMMERMEIER.
I wish I hadn't said anything!
OTTO.
So do I----G.o.d knows I do!
MELCHIOR.
If you don't at once----
ROBERT.
The long and the short of it is, Moritz Stiefel has broken into the Board Room.
MELCHIOR.
Into the Board Room----?
OTTO.
Into the Board Room. Right after the Latin lesson.
GEORGE.
He was the last. He hung back intentionally.
LAEMMERMEIER.
As I turned the corner of the corridor, I saw him open the door.
MELCHIOR.
The devil take----
LAEMMERMEIER.
If only the devil doesn't take him.
