Sophia has stood automatically, ready to support Sister Katerina. The tapping is repeated. Sister Katerina has moved with alarming speed and is almost inside when she turns to say, ‘Open the door, will you? That will be my weekly delivery from town.’ With this, the old nun goes inside and closes the door behind her, leaving Sophia alone in the garden.
The tapping repeats itself. A butterfly on the roses nearby takes to the air.
A donkey brays just outside. Sophia opens the door.
