.. (_Dragging away
the_ FIRST CHILD.) Come along!...
THE SECOND CHILD (_stretching her arms out frantically to the_ CHILD
_that is being carried off_)
A sign!... A sign!... Tell me how to find you!...
THE FIRST CHILD
I shall always love you!...
THE SECOND CHILD
I shall be the saddest thing on earth!... You will know me by that!...
(_She falls and remains stretched on the ground_.)
TIME
You would do much better to hope.... And now, that is all....
(_Consulting his hour-glass_.) We have only sixty-three seconds
left....
(_Last and violent movements among the_ CHILDREN _departing and
remaining. They exchange hurried farewells_.)
THE BLUE CHILDREN
Good-bye, Pierre!... Good-bye, Jean!... Have you all you want?... Announce
my idea!... Have you got the new turnscrew?... Mind you speak of my
melons!... Have you forgotten nothing?... Try to know me again I... I shall
find you!... Don't lose your ideas!... Don't lean too far into space!...
Send me your news!... They say one can't... Oh, try, do try!... Try to
tell us if it's nice!... I will come to meet you I... I shall be born on a
throne!...
TIME (_shaking his keys and his scythe_)
Enough! Enough!...
