Julie
We have no money to give, but if you care for a plate of soup [Louise goes into the house.] Have you come far today?
Liliom
Yes—very far.
Julie
Are you tired?
Liliom
Very tired.
Julie
Over there at the gate is a stone. Sit down and rest. My daughter is bringing you the soup. [Louise comes out of the house.]
Liliom
Is that your daughter?
Julie
Yes.
Liliom
[To Louise.] You are the daughter?
Louise
Yes, sir.
Liliom
A fine, healthy girl. [Takes the soup plate from her with one hand, while with the other he touches her arm. Louise draws back quickly.]
