Prudence: Good morning, Your Highness. Your Highness!
Cinderella: Ready for breakfast? How does a cheese omelets sound?
Prudence: The princess is missing! You! You, girl!
Have you seen the princess?
Cinderella: Good morning, Prudence.
Prudence: Oh, I thought you -- But those awful
clothes! Well, I - I didn't recognize you, Your
Highness. Allow me to introduce your ladies in waiting.
Beatrice and Daphne.
Beatrice：Pleased to meet you.
Cinderella: You're just in time for breakfast.
Beatrice：Breakfast? Ooh, with toast and jam?
Prudence: Your Highness, a princess never prepares
her own meals. That is not how things are done.
Cinderella: There are rules about breakfast?
Prudence: Of course there are rules, Your Highness.
But it's certainly not your fault... that you don't know
the traditions of the castle. That's what the king
expects me to teach you.
Cinderella: I'm sure I can learn it
in no time.
Prudence: Mm-hmm. Come along. There's no time to
dally. Just do as I say, and everything will be fine.
The king would be horrified... to find the hostess of
the royal banquet dressed
like a scullery maid! A princess must be
attired like
royalty.
Cinderella: Do I have to wear this all the
time?
Daphne: Oh, of course not, Your Highness. You'll need
something much more
formal for dinner.
Cinderella: Couldn't I just wear one of my own
dresses?
Prudence: Very amusing, Your Highness... but it
simply isn't done.
Cinderella: It's such a beautiful day. Why don't we
open the curtains?
Prudence: No, no, no! These curtains are never
opened. And certainly not by a princess. |
