(b) Mr. Lamb: Well that needn't stop you, you needn't mind.
Derry: It'd stop them. They'd mind me. When they saw me here. They look at my face and run.
Mr. Lamb: They might. They might not. You'd have to take the risk. So would they.
Derry: No, you would, you might have me and lose all your other friends, because nobody wants to stay near me if they can help it.
Mr. Lamb: I've not moved.
Derry: No.......
Mr. Lamb: When I go down the street, the kids shout 'Lamey Lamb'. But they still come into the Garden, into my house; it's a game. They're not afraid of me. Why should they be? Because I'm not afraid of them, that's why not.'
