Prover 1
Held in.
Hoarding old grudges.
An old house, mouldy, with the smell of wax, empty, dry, with faded glory.
Living on old fame.
An old man form nobility has many small love affairs, with the maid, with married women; he is courteous, courtly, but never finds a real love; he thinks they are not good enough for him, for his family, for his nobility.
He seems easy going and modest, but in the background he follows his own motives and does not give on, goes his own way.
Taste: velvety, tasteless and still filthy.
Life is boring, it has its exciting moments, but even then he behaves indifferent; others stop the connection because they feel undervalued and not seen, only in the beginning.
Disdain.
Unclear irony.
sow doubt.
Making sudden remarks.
Stage 145.
