That’s enough Beatie and Matilde. Thank you Jester. (Exit Jester)
BEATTIE That was a lot of fun, I can’t wait to attend my first ball. When will it be mother?
QUEEN Very soon Beattie, we hope. We will be inviting suitable young ladies to meet your brother, the Prince, at the Summer Ball.
MATILDE Oh, that’ll be lovely. Will I get a new dress?
QUEEN No, dear, you will not be going.  Young princesses do not go to balls until they are much older.

KING No, tell him to await my summons.
JESTER  I didn’t know you were being summoned, your Majestical.
