Baron Don Magnifico's daughters were as vain as they were beautiful. They burst into the grand hall and began to trouble Cenerentola...
Clorinda:
Cenerentola!
This house is a sty, and we're bored.
Tisbe:
Bored, yes, bored! The horror.
Why don't you entertain us?
Clorinda:
Yes, do, tell us a story!
Cenerentola:
Well, I only know one story -
My mother used to tell it to me.
Clorinda & Tisbe:
Humph! Well it must be rubbish,
But if we must...
As one, the girls turned their backs on Cenerentola so they could practice flitting their eyelashes and fluttering their fans. Their disregard brought them more pleasure than any story of hers ever would.
