ADJUTANT. He is said to be a highly educated young man, and he is
engaged to a rich girl. It's extraordinary! I really consider this is
the right place for him!
HEAD DOCTOR. Yes, it's a mania.
Borís is brought in.
HEAD DOCTOR. Glad to see you. Please take a seat and let's have a chat.
[To Adjutant] Please leave us. [Exit Adjutant].
BORÍS. I should like to ask you, if possible, if you mean to lock me up
somewhere, to be so good as to do it quickly and let me rest.
HEAD DOCTOR. Excuse me, we must keep the rules. Only a few questions.
What do you feel? What are you suffering from?
BORÍS. Nothing. I am perfectly well.
HEAD DOCTOR. Yes, but you are not behaving like other people.
BORÍS. I am behaving as my conscience demands.
HEAD DOCTOR. Well, you see you have refused to perform your military
service. On what grounds do you do so?
