_Princess:_ I am sorry the old one to be gone. To remember him is nearly the farthest spot in my memory. _Queen: (Sharply.)_ If you want the house to be under your hand only, it is best for you to settle into one of your own. _Princess:_ Give me the little rush cabin by the stream and I'll be content. _Queen:_ If you mind yourself and profit by my instruction it is maybe not a cabin you will be moving to but a palace. _Princess:_ I'm tired of palaces. There are too many people in them. _Queen:_ That is talking folly. When you settle yourself it must be in the station where you were born. _Princess:_ I have no mind to settle myself yet awhile. _Nurse:_ Ah, you will not be saying that the time Mr. Right will come down the chimney, and will give you the marks and tokens of a king. |
