| Spring Festival. A Village | Wintry shades of narrow lanes. A fair. Variety of people:- walking, riding horses, sitting, travelling in bullock carts. |
| A little boy with his parents. | Wanted many things like toys, though his parents refused and beckoned him forward. |
| The boy likes being with nature. | Every time he was with plants and animals, like mustard fields, dragon-flies, doves, and flowers, his strict and disciplinary parents would call him on. |
| In the Fair. | The Boy Wanted:-
1) A burfi from a sweetmeat seller.
2) A garland of gulmohar from a flower-seller.
3) Balloons of various colours.
4) To see a snake charmer's show.
Though he didn't ask for these as he knew his plea would not be heeded. |
| When the Boy realises he is Lost. | When the boy saw a roundabout, he made a bold request that he wanted to ride on it. However, while he was being drawn by various good, he was separated from his family and hopelessly lost. He shrieked and cried for his parents. |
| The Stranger | A man in the crowd found the boy sobbing. He asked where and who his parents were. He then tried his best to comfort him by taking him to the various things the latter wanted. But the child kept crying and kept asking for his mother and father. |
