Scene: The Greenhouse

Good morning, Ben
Ah, back again today, are you?
I saw that robin again
I know where he lives, too
It's that square garden with the tall hedge all 'round it
Ah, they say that were Miss Lily's garden
Her garden?
But I want to see it
Can you show me the door?
No, I can't
When she died, your uncle Archibald locked the door
Said no one was ever to go in that garden again
And buried the key
And now the ivy's grown up over the door
So even I don't know where it is anymore
Maybe that's why the robin is chirping all the time
He wants someone to climb over the garden wall and work on it!
You stay away from Miss Lily's garden
Or you're like to find yourself back on a boat - or worse!
Who is that boy?
That's Martha's brother Dickon
Conjuring with that stick of his
