Excerpt from A Dramatic Reader, Vol. 1: Book I
A field with a big tree, right rear. Little Klaus with his horse harnessed to a plough. Great Klaus with the halter rope of his four horses in his hand.
Great Klaus. That's settled then. You lend me your one horse for four days, and in return I'll lend you my four for one day.
Little K. Yes, that's right; but I say, Klaus, you might lend me your four to-day, so that I can get this field ploughed.
Great K. (Aside.) It's half-past ten now; it will be a short day anyway, and I shall gain by it. (Aloud.) All right, I don't mind; but it's very generous of me to give way like this.
Little K. Thank you, thank you, kind friend; now I can get my field ploughed. (He harnesses the other four horses. - Great Klaus turns to go.) Gee up, all my five!
Great K. Here, you must not say that; they're not all yours.
Little K. Yes, they are for to-day; but I'll not say it, if it makes you angry. (Great Klaus walks away.) Come, gee-up. (Exit Great Klaus.) Now he's gone. Gee-up, all my five! (Re-enter Great Klaus in a rage.)
Great K. I told you not to say that; if you do again, I'll kill your horse with a stone.
Little K. I am sorry, I won't say it again.
