Serenade, Boost, Nod


Jack and Jill went up the hill, that much we know.

Jack had to give Jill a boost to get to the picnic spot he’d laid out in secret hours before. The view was picturesque.

Without Jill noticing, Jack gave a nod to someone hidden close by. A mandolin serenade floated up.

Jack asked Jill to stand, then fell to one knee, professing his love for her. Reaching into his bag, he took out his crown and broke it, thus symbolically leaving the royal family in favour for the love of a commoner.

Jill’s dream of silk dresses was shattered.
