have builded are the play-fields of this child of the gods. (The man goes away in silence not weeping.)
OOGNO (Taking Thahn by the wrist) Is this indeed a man?
AGMAR A man, a man, and until just now a hungry one.
ACT III
Same room. A few days have elapsed. Seven thrones shaped like mountain-crags stand along the back of the stage. On these the beggars are lounging. The Thief is absent.
MLAN Never had beggars such a time.
OOGNO Ah, the fruits and tender lamb!
THAHN The Woldery wine!
SLAG It was better to see my Master's wise devices than to have fruit and lamb and Woldery wine.
MLAN Ah, when they spied on him to see if he would eat when they went away!
OOGNO When they questioned him concerning the gods and Man!
