While far below he could see the ground,

I sat in the dark view-room of the space station. I looked out at the Earth. It
was somewhat familiar to me. There was a small photograph of the blue planet in
our drawing room. I, Kepler Masterman, was born on the Moon fifteen years back.
My mother had been dead five years ago. She had told me stories about the Earth,
that excitingly unknown place. My father is the Governor of the Moon. He was
going on an expedition to the Earth. And here was I, accompanying him on my
first ever journey to the Earth.

I will go with my father a-ploughing
To
the green field by the sea,
And
the rooks and the crows and the seagull
Will
come flocking after me.
I
will sing to the patient horses
With
the lark in the while of the air,
And
my father will sing the plough-song
That
blesses the cleaving share.

Immediately afterwards, the good fairy Grandmarina came riding in, in a
carriage drawn by four peacocks, dressed in silver and gold. “Alicia, my dear,”
said the charming old fairy, “How do you do?” The princess Alicia embraced her.
Grandmarina turned to the King then. “I suppose you know the reason now why
Alicia did not use the fish-bone sooner?” The King made her a shy bow. “It only
remains,” said Grandmarina in conclusion, “to make an end to the fish-bone.” So
she took it from the hand of the princess Alicia, and it was instantly grabbed
by the little snapping pug-dog next door!

Now I knew his secret. Dadian had been eating smart ice cream; that’s how he
got one hundred for Maths. Thereafter I decided to finish off the matter. I put
some sand that I carried with me into every bin in the van, except for the
smart ice cream. Next, I looked at the smart ice cream. I decided to eat some.
Not that I needed it --- I was quite smart already. Anyway, I gave it a try. I
ate the lot. Once I started I couldn’t stop. It tasted good. It was delicious.
At last, I left the van and went home to bed, but I couldn’t sleep. To tell the
truth, I didn’t feel too good. I think I have made a mistake.
