[The Fairy goes.]
WOMAN. As if cake could ever taste like bread! 'Tis impossible—impossible!
(She eats a cake.)
What is this? I seem to be eating crust, dry crust. I'll try another cake.
"will you give me a cake?"
(She eats another cake.)
Why, this too changes to crust! Ah me! The Fairy's words were true. I would not give, I cannot have. Ah me! Ah me!
