THE POST OFFICE
Watchman
The King sends tiny notes to little boys.
Amal
Oh, how lovely! When shall I have my letter? How do you guess he'll write to me?
Watchman
Otherwise why should he set his Post Office here right in front of your open window, with the golden flag flying?
Amal
But who will fetch me my King's letter when it comes?
Watchman
The King has many postmen. Don't you see them run about with round gilt badges on their chests?
