No More Learning

Let no one stop our way.

[_They go. _

CATHLEEN [_to servant_].

Follow and bring them here again--beseech them.

[_The SERVANT goes. _

[_To STEWARD. _]

Steward, you know the secrets of this house.
How much have I in gold?

STEWARD.

A hundred thousand.

CATHLEEN.

How much have I in castles?

STEWARD.

As much more.

CATHLEEN.
How much have I in pastures?

STEWARD.

As much more.

CATHLEEN.

How much have I in forests?

STEWARD.

As much more.

CATHLEEN.

Keeping this house alone, sell all I have;
Go to some distant country and come again
With many herds of cows and ships of grain.

STEWARD.

God's blessing light upon your ladyship;
You will have saved the land.

CATHLEEN.

Make no delay.

[_He goes. _

[_Enter SERVANT. _]

How did you thrive?
