Princess leans out and waves her hand.

Knight dismounts, and little page takes horse, leading it off stage._ _Knight._ Lean out of thy window, O Princess fair, Rescuers now are at hand.
Thou shalt be led down the winding stair By the Queen of the Fairy band.
Listen, as low on the South Wind's flute I call the elves to our tryst Down rainbow bubbles they softly float, Light-winged as stars in a mist.
[_He blows on flute, and from every direction the Fairies come floating in, their gauzy wings spangled, and each one carrying a toy balloon, attached to a string.

They trip back and forth, their balloons bobbing up and down like rainbow bubbles, singing._ [Fairy Chorus.
We come, we come at thy call, On rainbow bubbles we float.
We fairies, one and all, Have answered the wind flute's note.
The south wind's silver flute, From the far-off summer land, It bade us hasten here, To lend a helping hand.
It bade us hasten, hasten here, To lend a helping hand.

To the aid of the gallant knight, To the help of the princess fair, To the rescue of the prince, We come to the Ogre's lair.
To the rescue of the prince, We come to the Ogre's lair.

And now, at thy behest, We pause in our bright array, To end thy weary quest, For love has found a way.
