_Happyheart_ (impatiently): We know all that!
_Spirit_ (steps toward Childhood): We want you to help us now, Childhood, to make Christmas merry for this party of grownfolks.
_Childhood:_ No children? They're all grownfolks?
_Spirit:_ No children. They're all grownfolks.
_Childhood:_ Poor things! How sad!
_Spirit:_ But they have a tree and we want to give them gifts which, because they are fairy gifts, will make their best every-day wish come true!
_Childhood:_ Yes-they'll think, because they are grownups, they must have useful gifts! But they shall have fairy gifts!
_Happyheart_ (to other fairies): I told you she'd help us! _Merrylips:_ And these grown folks must make a big, big wish and have it on top of their hearts! Then, if they carry their gifts in the bottom of their pockets their wishes will come true!
_Childhood:_ I will call my Jesters! They are clever knaves--they will find the gifts!
_Happyheart:_ Call them quickly!
