The king frowned. "Well," he said, "there's one more thing, a mere
trifle to look after before the wedding. My castle seems to me set a little
too much toward the shade. You or one of your men must blow on it till
it turns a quarter-round toward the sun."
The lad, hat in hand as always, gave a sign to Mill-Puffer. Mill-Puffer
lay down on his back and drew back his folded legs, facing (so to speak)
one wing of the castle. The castle turned three times around like a top.
The king frowned more and more blackly.
