Cynthia Jane de Blaise William (10 years after)

Description

Little Cynthia all grown up and still loves a game of Croquet
Character from The Musical Box - Genesis: Nursery Crimes 1971

The story is as follows:

While Henry Hamilton-Smythe minor (8) was playing croquet
with Cynthia Jane De Blaise-William (9), sweet-smiling Cynthia
raised her mallet high and gracefully removed Henry's head.
Two weeks later, in Henry's nursery, she discovered his treasured
musical box. Eagerly she opened it and as "Old King Cole"
began to play, a small spirit- figure appeared. Henry had returned -
but not for long, for as he stood in the room his
body began ageing rapidly, leaving a child's mind inside. A lifetime's desires
surged through him. Unfortunately the attempt
to persuade Cynthia Jane to fulfill his romantic desire led his nurse to the nursery
to investigate the noise. Instinctively Nanny hurled
the musical box at the bearded child, destroying both.


Whilst we know the fate of little Henry there is nothing more on what happened to Cynthia Jane and so as a deviation from the story  (no pun intended) I decided to concentrate on how she may have grown up.

Her passion is still Croquet for which she loves to lure her suitors into game with her. She quickly dispatches them to the after life in order to try and recreate the romantic spiritual event cut short by the nurse all those years ago.

The definitive version of the Musical Box is from the 1973 live album. It is superbly performed and very powerful never failing to make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

Loved the bright red hair but figured that in Victorian times this would not be acceptable or possible perhaps. Also thought that as she grew little Cynthia's blonde locks would have darkened.... perhaps just too much thinking going on here.
