ELINE
(et skridt nærmere).
Har I hørt om hin moder, der kørte over fjeldet ved nattetid med sine småbørn i slæden? Ulveflokken fulgte hende i sporet; det gjaldt liv eller død; – og hun kasted sine små bagud efter sig, en for en, for at vinde tid og frelse sig selv.
ELINA
(comes a step nearer).
Have you heard the story of the mother that drove across the hills by night with her little children by her in the sledge? The wolves were on her track; it was life or death with her;--and one by one she cast out her little ones, to gain time and save herself.
