TYLTYL
And why Is Tylo trembling?... Is he afraid, too?...
THE DOG
I?... I'm not trembling!... I am never afraid; but if you went away, I
should go too....
TYLTYL
And has the Cat nothing to say?...
THE CAT (_mysteriously_)
I know what's what....
TYLTYL (_to LIGHT_)
Are you coming with us?...
LIGHT
No; it is better that I should remain at the gate of the graveyard with the
Things and the Animals.... Some of them would be too frightened and I fear
that the others would misbehave.... Fire, in particular, would want to burn
the dead, as of old; and that is no longer done.... I shall leave you alone
with Mytyl....
TYLTYL
And may not Tylo stay with us?...
THE DOG
Yes, yes, I shall stay; I shall stay here I... I want to stay with my
little god!...
LIGHT
It is impossible.... The Fairy gave formal orders; besides, there is
nothing to fear....
THE DOG
Very well, very well, it makes no difference. If they are vicious, my
little god, all you have to do Is this ... (_he whistles_) and you
shall see.... It will be just as in the forest: Wow! Wow! Wow!...
LIGHT
Come, good-bye, dear children ... I shall not be far away.... (_She
kisses the_ CHILDREN.
