Scene 14b

(In a new light.)

ENSEMBLE:

RED, THE JEW WILL BLEED WHEN YOU BEAT HIM...

(Ruth and Gunvor isolated in separate lights.)

GUNVOR & RUTH: LOVELY AS ONCE WHEN TIME WAS YOUNGER. TO ME IT FELT LIKE WE HAD FOR AGES WALKED TOGETHER. YOU AND ME TOGETHER ON SUNNY PATHWAYS. SO UNIFIED THAT THE TWO OF US WERE ONLY ONE. YOU, THAT WAS I. AND I, I WAS YOU.

Scene 15

(RUTH, from her text "A Memory." At the same time we may see her MOTHER and SISTER in a separate light, far away from those days ...)

RUTH:

I remember one evening. You were going to the theater. How we enjoyed that word. A twilight in the room and you in the front of the mirror. You were wearing your dress, Mama, the one with white dots. We sneaked us up your long legs and said: Mama, how pretty you are! You smiled. Papa was standing behind. Young and very different from when he was dead. He was waiting and you, you were standing in front of the mirror.
