"The little Prince, as we have seen,'* said Richard, "could not refrain from j jumping out of bed to dance to the magic tune. But as he danced the music grew fainter and fainter, so that, to hear it, he had to leave the Castle and follow it to the woods. Soon he was racing to the entrance of the great forest, intent only on following the wonderful sounds as they gradually drifted deeper and deeper into the tangle of the undergrowth.” "That last bit is very good.” approved Gwen. "Very literary. 1 didn’t think you could do it, Richard! Go on.”
