THE FAIRY Do you know who I am?...

TYLTYL You're rather like our neighbour, Madame Berlingot....

THE FAIRY (growing suddenly angry) Not a bit!... There's not the least likeness!... This is intolerable!... I am the Fairy Bérylune....

TYLTYL Oh! Very well....

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....
