ood day!” said the Scarecrow, gallantly removing his hat, while the Woodman gave a soldierly salute; “we have come to request an audience with your fair Ruler.” “Glinda is now within her palace, awaiting you,” returned the Captain; “for she saw you coming long before you arrived.” “That is strange!” said Tip, wondering. “Not at all,” answered the Scarecrow, “for Glinda the Good is a mighty Sorceress, and nothing that goes on in the Land of Oz escapes her notice. I suppose she knows why we came as well as we do ourselves.” “Then what was the use of our coming?” asked Jack, stupidly. “To prove you are a Pumpkinhead!” retorted the Scarecrow. “But, if the Sorceress expects us, we must not keep her waiting.” So they all clambered out of the sofas and followed the Captain toward the palace—even the Saw-Horse taking his place in the queer procession. Upon her throne of finely wrought gold sat Glinda, and she could scarcely repress a smile as her peculiar visitors entered and bowed before her.
