THE FAIRY
You will have to start at once. TYLTYL Are you coming with us? THE FAIRY I can't, because I put on the soup this morning and it always boils over if I leave it for more than an hour.... (_Pointing successively to the ceiling, the chimney and the window_) Will you go out this way, or that way, or that way?... TYLTYL (_pointing timidly to the door_) I would rather go out that way.... THE FAIRY (_growing suddenly angry again_) That's quite impossible; and it's a shocking habit!... (_Pointing to the window_) We'll go out this way.... Well?... What are you waiting for?... Get dressed at once.... (_The_ CHILDREN _do as they are told and dress quickly_.) I'll help Mytyl.... TYLTYL We have no shoes.... THE FAIRY That doesn't matter. I will give you a little magic hat. Where are your father and mother?.... TYLTYL (_pointing to the door on the right_) They're asleep in there.... |
