"I wonder if you see what _I_ see."

"What _do_ you see, Sonny?" the Toyman replied.

"A great big city--look, there it is!" And the little boy pointed
straight at the clouds.

"Why, to be sure!" exclaimed the Toyman, "there it is, an' it looks
mighty pretty. But just _what_ do you make out?"

"Well!" replied Marmaduke, squinting his eye thoughtfully, "_I_
see a big wall and towers on it--a whole lot of towers. There's about
fifty, I guess."

The Toyman squinted too, and pointed his brown finger at the clouds,
counting slowly under his breath.

"Fifty-_one_ towers I make," he said as he finished--"some little
and some big; and some have little peaks on 'em, and some are all
scalloped out on top."

"And there's a church--a _whopper_ of a big one!" went on
Marmaduke.

"Where?" asked the Toyman, craning his neck.

Marmaduke pointed at the Cloud City.

"There--just behind the biggest tower."
