[0012] I'm beginning to come round
to that opinion. [0014] All my life
I've tried to put it from me,
saying, Vladimir, be reasonable,
you haven't yet tried everything.
[0015] And I resumed the struggle. [0016] (He
broods, musing on the struggle. [0017] T
Turning to Estragon.) [0018] So there you
are again.

[0019] Am I?

[0020] I'm glad to see you back. [0021] I
thought you were gone for ever.

[0022] Me too.

[0022|001] Together again at last! [0023] We'll
have to celebrate this. But how?
[0024] (He reflects.) [0025] Get up till I embrace
you.

[0027] (irritably) [0028] Not now, not now.

[0030] (hurt, coldly) [0031] may one enquire

[0032] In a ditch.

[0033] (admiringly). [0034] A ditch! [0035] Where?

[0036] (without gesture) [0037] Over there.

[0038] And they didn't beat you?

[0038|001] Beat me? [0039] Certainly they
beat me.

[0041] The same lot as usual?

[0042] The same? [0043] I don't know.

[0045] When I think of it... all those
years... but for me... where
would you be... [0046] (Decisively.)
