"Turn the key and the door will open," said the same voice.
Pinocchio turned the key and the door opened, but though they entered the house and looked all around, they saw no one.
"Where is the master of the house?" asked Pinocchio, in surprise.
“Here I am, up here.”
Geppetto and the puppet turned quickly and there on a rafter they saw the Talking Cricket.
"Oh, my dear cricket!" said Pinocchio, bowing politely to him.
"Oh, now you call me your dear cricket do you? But do you remember the time when you struck me with a hammer to drive me away from the house?"
“Oh you are right, Cricket, to scold me. Take a hammer and drive me away if you will, but have pity on my poor father."
"I will have pity on you both, but I wanted to remind you of your bad manners, and to teach you, if I could, that in this world we should show courtesy to everybody if we want it to be extended to us in our time of need."
