Summary

“The Remarkable Rocket”

The King’s son is going to marry a beautiful Russian princess and the people are all in awe of her. One page comments that she was like a white rose before but now she is like a red one. For three days the kingdom rejoices, and then the wedding takes place. It is perfect, and after the banquet there is a Ball planned. The last item on the agenda is to be a magnificent fireworks display because the Princess had never seen a firework before.

A stand is set up in the garden and the fireworks within it begin to talk to each other. A Squib marvels at the yellow tulips in the garden and how great it is to travel. A Roman Candle scoffs that this is a garden, not the wider world. A Catherine Wheel comments that any place you love is the world, but love is not as fashionable as it used to be. The Roman Candle disagrees and says romance never dies.

The three of them hear a sharp cough, which they discern came from a tall Rocket. He clears his throat to get their attention. He begins to speak slowly and distinctly, telling the group that it is very fortunate the King’s son married on the day he is to be set off. The Squib says it is the other way around but the Rocket smiles that he is a remarkable rocket from remarkable parents and his father was a triumph of "Pylotechnic" art. A Bengal Light corrects him with “Pyrotechnic” and the Rocket is not amused.

The Rocket continues, sighing that he hates rudeness and is very sensitive. He hears the Cracker laugh and angrily asks why it does that. It replies that it is happy, and the Rocket is annoyed because it is selfish and everyone should think about the Rocket; after all, he is always thinking about himself. He sniffs that if anything happened to him the Prince and Princess would never be happy in their whole married life.

When someone tells him to be careful not to cry because he cannot get wet, the Rocket admonishes them that he is very uncommon and has imagination. He also has a perfectly developed emotional nature, and does not appreciate how the others simply laugh and are joyous. It is a hollow and empty view of life, and what is the point of being joyous if one day the Prince and Princess have a son and he falls into water and drowns?
