FIRST WOMAN. Let us go; and let us hide ourselves under some scalp of a rock, in a hole in the earth, or in the middle of the woods!
SECOND WOMAN. Let us then hasten that we may hide ourselves.
MARY MOTHER (_rises up and stretches out her hands, beckoning to the women_). Come over here. Come to this cradle. The Son of G.o.d is in this cradle, and His cradle is nothing but a manger. But yet He is King of the World. There is a welcome before the whole world coming to this cradle; but it is those that are asking forgiveness will get the greatest welcome.
(_The two women fall on their knees._
_Child angels come and stand on the rising ground at each side of the stable, and s.h.i.+ning clothes on them like the colours of the morning.
They lift their trumpets and blow them softly._)
MARY MOTHER. Listen to the angels, the angels of G.o.d!
AN ANGEL OF THEM. A hundred welcomes before the whole world to this cradle. We give out peace; we give out goodwill; we give out joy to the whole world! (_They take their share of trumpets up again, and blow them long and very sweetly._)
THE END.
