We must be dead and we don't know it. 2 Perhaps that's why the birds are leaving so early this spring. They're afraid of the planes. -Yes, they're leaving us to fend for ourselves. 3 Yes. Seems a long time ago, doesn't it? -A long time ago. All the way between childhood and being grown up. 4 Where did she come from, did you say? -From Canada. That's a land far, far across the seas. Beautiful daughter of England. 5 Don't you want her to feel free? Free to go where she wants to be? Free to do what she wants to do? We don't want to make the princess a prisoner, do we? -No. -No. 6 They said if you saw the flying wild goose you'd be saved. It's a sort of good luck omen. 7 We'll call her La Princesse Perdue, the lost princess. 8 I heard tell that he keeps birds in cages, and feeds them and looks after them, and won't let no one go shooting at them in your land. 9 Looks as though we were lucky to see the goose. 10 She'll never go away again. The lost princess is lost no more. This is her home now, of her own free will. 1 2 3 4 5 ► >> Page 1 of 12
