[03:34.88]Text:That's It
[03:39.79]A certain poet had written a play,
[03:45.38]and arrangements were being made to perform it.
[03:49.98]Of course, the poet was asked to give his advice on all the things
[03:57.37]that helped to make the play successful.
[04:01.55]But he proved to be a very difficult man to please,
[04:08.16]as he had his own very definite ideas of how each scene should look
[04:17.07]In one of the scenes in the play,
[04:20.86]it was necessary to produce the effect of a wonderful sunset.
[04:26.87]The theatre electricians worked very hard to produce this sunset effect.
[04:34.36]They tried out all kinds of arrangements and combinations of lights.
[04:41.36]But nothing satistried the poet,
[04:45.36]until suddenly he saw exactly the effect that he had been dreaming of
[04:50.95]producing ever since he had written his play.
[04:55.63]"That's it!"he shouted excitedly to the electricians behind the stage.
[05:03.20]"That's just right!Keep it exactly like that!"
[05:09.21]I'm sorry,sir,answered the chief electrician,
[05:15.01]"but we can't keep in like this.
[05:19.01]"Why ever not?" asked the poet angrily.
[05:24.10]"Because the theatre is on fire, sir,"answered the chief electrician.
