Sapsorrow
"Then suddenly, magically, from every quarter, creatures appeared, things that scurried, things that flew, hurrying, flying toward the Straggletag, engulfing her in a cloud of whirring, beating activity. While all looked on, bewildered, an extraordinary transformation took place. For before their eyes, the hapless, pathetic creature became a beautiful woman, standing radiant in a dress shimmering with gold, as if the sun had burst into the Great hall."
