You are accused of having broken this Law, even after you had been warned not to do so." Ojo hung his head and while he hesitated how to reply the Patchwork Girl stepped forward and spoke for him.
"All this fuss is about nothing at all," she said, facing Ozma unabashed.

"You can't prove he picked the six-leaved clover, so you've no right to accuse him of it.

Search him, if you like, but you won't find the clover; look in his basket and you'll find it's not there.

He hasn't got it, so I demand that you set this poor Munchkin boy free." The people of Oz listened to this defiance in amazement and wondered at the queer Patchwork Girl who dared talk so boldly to their Ruler.

But Ozma sat silent and motionless and it was the little Wizard who answered Scraps.
"So the clover hasn't been picked, eh ?" he said.
