At
the
farther
end
of
this
charming
room
was
an
open
doorway
,
and
he
crossed
over
to
find
himself
in
a
bedroom
containing
more
comforts
than
the
shaggy
man
had
ever
before
imagined
.
The
bedstead
was
of
gold
and
set
with
many
brilliant
diamonds
,
and
the
coverlet
had
designs
of
pearls
and
rubies
sewed
upon
it
.
At
one
side
of
the
bedroom
was
a
dainty
dressing-room
with
closets
containing
a
large
assortment
of
fresh
clothing
;
and
beyond
this
was
the
bath
--
a
large
room
having
a
marble
pool
big
enough
to
swim
in
,
with
white
marble
steps
leading
down
to
the
water
.
Around
the
edge
of
the
pool
were
set
rows
of
fine
emeralds
as
large
as
door-knobs
,
while
the
water
of
the
bath
was
clear
as
crystal
.
For
a
time
the
shaggy
man
gazed
upon
all
this
luxury
with
silent
amazement
.
Then
he
decided
,
being
wise
in
his
way
,
to
take
advantage
of
his
good
fortune
.
He
removed
his
shaggy
boots
and
his
shaggy
clothing
,
and
bathed
in
the
pool
with
rare
enjoyment
.
After
he
had
dried
himself
with
the
soft
towels
he
went
into
the
dressing-room
and
took
fresh
linen
from
the
drawers
and
put
it
on
,
finding
that
everything
fitted
him
exactly
.
He
examined
the
contents
of
the
closets
and
selected
an
elegant
suit
of
clothing
.
Strangely
enough
,
everything
about
it
was
shaggy
,
although
so
new
and
beautiful
,
and
he
sighed
with
contentment
to
realize
that
he
could
now
be
finely
dressed
and
still
be
the
shaggy
man
.
His
coat
was
of
rose-colored
velvet
,
trimmed
with
shags
and
bobtails
,
with
buttons
of
blood-red
rubies
and
golden
shags
around
the
edges
.
His
vest
was
a
shaggy
satin
of
a
delicate
cream
color
,
and
his
knee-breeches
of
rose
velvet
trimmed
like
the
coat
.
Shaggy
creamy
stockings
of
silk
,
and
shaggy
slippers
of
rose
leather
with
ruby
buckles
,
completed
his
costume
,
and
when
he
was
thus
attired
the
shaggy
man
looked
at
himself
in
a
long
mirror
with
great
admiration
.
On
a
table
he
found
a
mother-of-pearl
chest
decorated
with
delicate
silver
vines
and
flowers
of
clustered
rubies
,
and
on
the
cover
was
a
silver
plate
engraved
with
these
words
:

THE
SHAGGY
MAN
:
HIS
BOX
OF
ORNAMENTS
The
chest
was
not
locked
,
so
he
opened
it
and
was
almost
dazzled
by
the
brilliance
of
the
rich
jewels
it
contained
.
After
admiring
the
pretty
things
,
he
took
out
a
fine
golden
watch
with
a
big
chain
,
several
handsome
finger-rings
,
and
an
ornament
of
rubies
to
pin
upon
the
breast
of
his
shaggy
shirt-bosom
Having
carefully
brushed
his
hair
and
whiskers
all
the
wrong
way
to
make
them
look
as
shaggy
as
possible
,
the
shaggy
man
breathed
a
deep
sigh
of
joy
and
decided
he
was
ready
to
meet
the
Royal
Princess
as
soon
as
she
sent
for
him
.
While
he
waited
he
returned
to
the
beautiful
sitting
room
and
ate
several
of
the
red-cheeked
apples
to
pass
away
the
time
.

Meanwhile
,
Dorothy
had
dressed
herself
in
a
pretty
gown
of
soft
grey
embroidered
with
silver
,
and
put
a
blue-and-gold
suit
of
satin
upon
little
Button-Bright
,
who
looked
as
sweet
as
a
cherub
in
it
.
Followed
by
the
boy
and
Toto
--
the
dog
with
a
new
green
ribbon
around
his
neck
--
she
hastened
down
to
the
splendid
drawing-room
of
the
palace
,
where
,
seated
upon
an
exquisite
throne
of
carved
malachite
and
nestled
amongst
its
green
satin
cushions
was
the
lovely
Princess
Ozma
,
waiting
eagerly
to
welcome
her
friend
.
The
royal
historians
of
Oz
,
who
are
fine
writers
and
know
any
number
of
big
words
,
have
often
tried
to
describe
the
rare
beauty
of
Ozma
and
failed
because
the
words
were
not
good
enough
.
So
of
course
I
can
not
hope
to
tell
you
how
great
was
the
charm
of
this
little
Princess
,
or
how
her
loveliness
put
to
shame
all
the
sparkling
jewels
and
magnificent
luxury
that
surrounded
her
in
this
her
royal
palace
.
Whatever
else
was
beautiful
or
dainty
or
delightful
of
itself
faded
to
dullness
when
contrasted
with
Ozma
's
bewitching
face
,
and
it
has
often
been
said
by
those
who
know
that
no
other
ruler
in
all
the
world
can
ever
hope
to
equal
the
gracious
charm
of
her
manner
.
Everything
about
Ozma
attracted
one
,
and
she
inspired
love
and
the
sweetest
affection
rather
than
awe
or
ordinary
admiration
.
Dorothy
threw
her
arms
around
her
little
friend
and
hugged
and
kissed
her
rapturously
,
and
Toto
barked
joyfully
and
Button-Bright
smiled
a
happy
smile
and
consented
to
sit
on
the
soft
cushions
close
beside
the
Princess
.
