Script Lines Scene 6 Flashcards
Rodrigo: The play begins. “Season of Light.” Once upon a time, the Sister of the Sun decided to leave her home and her twin, She of the Moon, and go out among the people of the earth.
I should like to meet and talk with all kinds of men-the high born and the low, the good and the wicked. I wish to laugh with the children and cry with the widows. I shall enjoy the life my sun brings the land.
Apple: But you will frighten them with your brilliance and beauty.
I will put on a disguise. No one will know me and they will treat me as one of their own.
Rodrigo: For that is the way of the world. But she was mostly happy with the people.
There are more good than bad. All is well.
Mother: Magda! Magda!
Animals! Help us!
Toot after animals help us!
Rodrigo, I did it! I found an idea! I called the animals to save you!
Toot after Rodrigo! I did it!

Beggar Woman: I accept your offering. Let the sun return! Let life be restored to all!
The sun! The sun is back! We’re saved! Thank you, Sister, thank you! (etc).

And what shall become of us?
