VOICES

We're off

By the bridge. Can you see us? GYEM

By the bridge of dreams you go, To the waiting earth below. Turning to the audience.

Can you see them on their way? We are no longer children. We only see the

Maple Tree and the little white figure of Gyem . Gyem , however, waves his wand. Look again with children's eyes! And now , from the dark clustered leaves of the Maple Tree a narrow bridge swings in a rainbow -like arch to the world below.

On it

the fairies are seen, in silhouette, making their way in the moonlight, their little wings flut tering on the air. Gyem stands watching the fairies, when Mr. Bunt, in his hunting clothes, is seen climbing in a pathetic manner onto the stage. He waits till Gyem turns and sees him. SCENE 12 GYEM

Who are you ! MR. BUNT
