The King bowed low before Dorothy, and aske, "What is youtr command?"
"We wish to go to the Emerald City," said the child," and we have lost our way."
"We will carry you," replied the King, and no sooner had he spoken than two of the Monkeys caught Dorothy in their arms and flew away with her.
Others took the Scarecrow and the Woodman and the Lion,
and one little Monkey seized Toto and flew after them, although the dog tired hard to bite him.
The Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman were rather frightened at first, for they remembered how badly the Winged Monkeys had treated them before;
but they saw that no harm was intened, so they rode through the air quite cheerfully.
and had a fine time looking at the pretty gradens and woods far below them.
Dorothy found herself riding easily between two of the biggest Monkeys, one of them the King himself.
They had made a chair of their hands and were careful not to hurt her.
"Why do you have to obey the charm of the Golden Cap?" she asked.
"That is a long story," answered the King, with a Winged laugh;
"but as we have a long journey before us, I will pass the time by telling you about it, if you wish."
"I shall be gald to heart it," she replied.
