A: A penny for a poor old man, a penny for a poor old man. A penny for a poor old man!

 

 

07.10

B: Do you think we would make a match, now you are getting to know me?

 

 

09.50

B: Stop! [He strikes behind him with the pole. A lets go the chair, recoils.]

 

 

14.05

B: Day … night … [Looks.] It seems to me sometimes the earth must have got stuck, one sunless day, in the heart of winter, in the grey of evening.
