GENERAL. Silence, I tell you. Hear what I have to say to you.
BORÍS. I don't in the least want to hear what you have to say.
GENERAL. He is mad! He must be taken to the hospital to be examined.
That is the only thing to do.
COLONEL. The order was to send him to be examined at the Gendarmes'
office.
GENERAL. Well, then, send him there. Only put him into uniform.
COLONEL. He resists.
GENERAL. Bind him. [To Borís] Please hear what I have to say to you. I
don't care what happens to you, but for your own sake I advise you,
bethink yourself. You will rot in a fortress, and not do any good to
anyone. Give it up. Well, you flared up a bit and I flared up. [Slaps
him on the shoulder] Go, take the oath and give up all that nonsense.
[To Adjutant] Is the Priest here? [To Borís] Well? [Borís is silent] Why
don't you answer? Really you had better do as I say. You can't break a
club with a whip. You can keep your opinions, but serve your time! We
will not use force with you. Well?
BORÍS. I have nothing more to say, I have said all I had to.
