Why, your Highness, you know I'm a poor boy and I've always had to work. This is such pretty work--it's just like play. And I never really had enough to eat until I came here to live. I tell you it's horrid to be hungry! Then the good Fathers are so kind, and I love the Christmas carols and the chimes--why, I think it's a beautiful place, your Highness. Don't you like to watch the toys grow?
