                             The Princess and the Glass House.

Now begins your journey; now begins the fun and adventure of a lifetime.  Now begins . . .

Once there was a woman who lived in a glass house. I know this is true because I saw her, and her glass house. The house was very great, with many floors: and windows, and windows, and windows.

Glass houses are very interesting things. Some people would be very uncomfortable living in a glass house, thinking that everyone would look in and see them. I laugh. Glass houses are for looking Out Of - not In To...

People who live in glass houses are usually invisible, so the glass is for seeing out. not in.

And it is so for the woman who lives in the glass house: she can look out in all directions. But for all that, it seems that no one: of all the millions of people who live round about her: can see her.

She has one porch which faces west. From that window she can see west, and west, and west: until it becomes east, and rolls right up, even to the back of the house.

In the back of the house is a balcony that faces east. and this overlooks a great and beautiful garden.

This is her room, and her secret garden.

It is filled with all manner of fruit trees and flowers, and trees and vines. and the birds of her garden are fair.

and they sing beautiful songs.
