ACT III
[Helena's drawing room as before. Domin comes into the room. Dr. Gall is looking out of the window, through closed shutters. Alquist in seated down right.]
Domin
Any more of them?
Dr. Gall
Yes. There standing like a wall, beyond the garden railing. Why are they so quiet? It's monstrous to be besieged with silence.
Domin
I should like to know what they are waiting for. They must make a start any minute now. If they lean against the railing they'll snap it like a match.
Dr. Gall
They aren't armed.
