    There was a little prince with a magic crown. An evil warlock kidnapped him, locked him in a cell in a huge tower and took away his voice.
    There was a window with bars.
    The prince kept smashing his head against the bars hoping that some one would hear the sound and find him. The crown made the most beautiful sound that anyone ever heard. You could hear the ringing for miles. It was so beautiful, that people wanted to grab the air.
    They never found the prince. He never got out of the room.
    But the sound he made filled everything up with Beauty.
