THE MAKROPOULOS SECRET [Examining the papers]

The devil, Vitek, here is the date, sixteen hundred and three!

[Reading the seal]

It is the seal of Elina Makropoulos.

[He sits down]

So, you see what one finds.

But good Lord!

Mr. Hauk-Sendorf, don’t you know this medallion? I think that your coat of arms is on it.

[Looking at the medallion]

Yes—it is—I gave it to her, myself.

When?

Well—in Spain—fifty years ago.

To whom?

To herself—to Eugenie—Eugenie Montez.
