Hilda Wangel enters by the hall door. She is of middle height, supple, and delicately built. Somewhat sunburnt. Dressed in a tourist costume, with skirt caught up for walking, a sailor’s collar open at the throat, and a small sailor’s hat on her head. Knapsack on back, plaid in strap, and an alpenstock.

Hilda [Goes straight up to Solness, her eyes sparkling with happiness.] Good evening!

Mark André Thank you, Mary!
Just finished. Ibsen plays without sympathy. Cool story. Simple and strong.🤭
