As soon as the coach had drawn up the little man turned to Candlewick and with a thousand smirks and grimaces said to him, smiling: "Tell me, my fine boy, would you also like to go to that fortunate country?" "I certainly wish to go." "But I must warn you, my dear child, that there is not a place left in the coach. You can see for yourself that it is quite full."
Suddenly they saw in the distance a small light moving and they heard a noise of talking, and the sound of a trumpet, but so small and feeble that it resembled the hum of a mosquito. "Here it is!" shouted Candlewick, jumping to his feet. "What is it?" asked Pinocchio in a whisper. "It is the coach coming to take me. Now will you come, yes or no?"
But in the midst of their merriment Candlewick suddenly stopped, staggered, and, changing color, said to his friend: "Help, help, Pinocchio!" "What is the matter with you?" "Alas, I cannot any longer stand upright." "Neither can I," exclaimed Pinocchio, tottering and beginning to cry. And whilst they were talking, they both doubled up and began to run round the room on their hands and feet.
Here is my Lord Mayor, prompted thereto by his gracious Majesty the King, giving into my hands the task of seeing to the rebuilding of Bridge Ward, Within, Billingsgate Ward, Dowgate Ward, and Candlewick Ward. Four wards to build! why, my fortune is made!" He gave one quick look at Dinah, and then took her hand in his, all looking smilingly on the while.
Ah! if I had had the least heart I should never have left that good Fairy who loved me like a mamma, and who had done so much for me! And I would be no longer a puppet, for I would by this time have become a little boy like so many others: But if I meet Candlewick, woe to him! He shall hear what I think of him!" And he turned to go out.
PRUD. To show that the grace of God comes to us through the body of Christ. MATT. Why do some of the springs rise out of the tops of high hills? PRUD. To show that the spirit of grace shall spring up in some that are great and mighty, as well as in many that are poor and low. MATT. Why doth the fire fasten upon the candlewick?
At last the puppet said in a soft voice to his companion: "Satisfy my curiosity, my dear Candlewick: have you ever suffered from disease of the ears?" "Never! And you?" "Never. Only since this morning one of my ears aches." "Mine is also paining me." "You also? And which of your ears hurts you?" "Both of them. And you?" "Both of them. Can we have got the same illness?" "I fear so."
But when he reached the door he remembered his donkey's ears, and, feeling ashamed to show them in public, what do you think he did? He took a big cotton cap and, putting it on his head, he pulled it well down over the point of his nose. He then set out and went everywhere in search of Candlewick.
