Danish term or phrase: monumentet var baseret paa frost
A woman is reading to her severely injured boyfriend in the hospital from an unspecified book or a magazine. Et indfald, der nok boer ses i lyset af den nye selvtillid han besad, efter haendelsen i stenbruddet. Og for alt i verden, professor, tror jeg ikke vi skal ligge for meget i, at monumentet var baseret paa frost.
