`` What can I do , Prince , to make you happy ? '' said Beauty . `` Only be grateful , '' he answered , `` and do not trust too much to your eyes . And , above all , do not desert me until you have saved me from my cruel misery . '' After this she thought she found herself in a room with a stately and beautiful lady , who said to her : `` Dear Beauty , try not to regret all you have left behind you , for you are destined to a better fate . Only do not let yourself be deceived by appearances . '' Beauty found her dreams so interesting that she was in no hurry to awake , but presently the clock roused her by calling her name softly twelve times , and then she got up and found her dressing-table set out with everything she could possibly want ; and when her toilet was finished she found dinner was waiting in the room next to hers . But dinner does not take very long when you are all by yourself , and very soon she sat down cosily in the corner of a sofa , and began to think about the charming Prince she had seen in her dream . `` He said I could make him happy , '' said Beauty to herself . `` It seems , then , that this horrible Beast keeps him a prisoner .

The first she entered was lined with mirrors , and Beauty saw herself reflected on every side , and thought she had never seen such a charming room . Then a bracelet which was hanging from a chandelier caught her eye , and on taking it down she was greatly surprised to find that it held a portrait of her unknown admirer , just as she had seen him in her dream . With great delight she slipped the bracelet on her arm , and went on into a gallery of pictures , where she soon found a portrait of the same handsome Prince , as large as life , and so well painted that as she studied it he seemed to smile kindly at her . Tearing herself away from the portrait at last , she passed through into a room which contained every musical instrument under the sun , and here she amused herself for a long while in trying some of them , and singing until she was tired .
The next room was a library , and she saw everything she had ever wanted to read , as well as everything she had read , and it seemed to her XXXXX a whole lifetime would not be enough to even read the names of the books , there were so many .
