The Kingdom of God is Within You _{Christianity Not as a Mystic Religion But as a New Theory of Life}

ACT I
The Act takes place in autumn in a large village.
The Scene represents Peter's roomy hut. Peter is sit­ting on a wooden bench, mending a horse-collar.
Anísya and Akoulína are spinning, and singing a part-song.
PETER [looking out of the window] The horses
have got loose again. If we don't look out they'll be killing the colt. Nikíta! Hey, Nikíta! Is the fellow deaf ? [Listens. To the women] Shut up, one can't hear anything.
NIKÍTA [from outside] What?
PETER. Drive the horses in.
NIKÍTA. We'll drive ‘em in. All in good time.
