HALMSCHLAEGER
That is good and I hope our patient will be calmer now.
RADEMACHER
I am very greateful to you,
WEIHGAST
Au revoir then, good friend. If our doctor here will permit it
I'll be in again in a few days to see how you are getting on.
HALMSCHLAEGER
certainly. I will give orders to have you let in at any hour.
WEIHGAST
Oh no, don't make any change in your rules for my sake.
HALMSCHLAEGER
(Mosions to nurse who helps Weihgast on with overcoat)
WEIHGAST
(To Rademacher) Goodtye once more. Get well soon and don’t lose
heart. (Goes to door with Halmschlaeger)
FLORIAN
(Slips in through curtain) Good evening doctor.
HALMSCHLAEGER
Aren't you in bed yet?
WEIHGAST
(Aside to Halmschlaeger) Who's that man? He stores at me so
queerly.
HALMSCHLAEGER
a poor civil of an actor who doesn't suspect that he'll be
in his grave before another week is out.
WEIHGAST
Ah indeed! (His glance meets Florian's)
HALMSCHLAEGER
That's why I am not more strict with him. I don’t believe in
rules for the dying.
