Two gnomes enter, and soon light a fire that causes all assembled to vanish. Tableau 2 — "A landscape covered with flowers"  Spring dances with Zephyr, flower fairies, and enchanted birds. Upon feeling the heat of the sun, the assembly takes flight. Tableau 3 — "A landscape of flowing fields of wheat"  Cornflowers and poppies revel in the light and warmth of the sun. They take rest after their exertion. Now naiads appear, who bring water to refresh the growth, and the Spirit of Corn dances in thanksgiving. Satyrs and fauns enter playing their pipes, and attempt to carry off the Spirit of the Corn, but she is rescued by the wind of Zephyr. Tableau 4 — "A landscape in Autumn"  The Seasons take part in a glorious dance (the well-known "autumn bacchanale") while leaves from autumn trees rain upon their merriment. Apotheosis — "The Sable sky"  Constellations of stars sparkle above the earth.
