SCENE V.

Cinderella and the Prince, arm in arm, prepare to leave the stage,

followed by the sisters.

LISTENERS HEAR NO GOOD OF THEMSELVES.

The scene is a parlor.—In the foreground are two young girls, one of whom

holds a miniature out to the other, who puts it aside, with an expression

of angry contempt. The first girl is laughing heartily, and pointing her

finger at the second, as if teasing her about the picture.

Peeping out from behind a window-curtain is a young man, who, with an

expression of perfect rage, is shaking his fist at the ladies.

Hungry and shivering and nowhere to go

Floating free,

Gazing oft the waters o’er;

And the fishermen replied:

As they saw her golden hair

Floating free!]
