Number 5

As I eat

my not so settling soup I

hear the

bells ringing and ringing They won’t stop ringing!

Then suddenly silence...

Tapping,

wrapping at my door

Woosh! The door swings wide

A hovering apparition stands before me

(gasps) Marley...

is that you?

"Scrooge, it is me,

Marley, your old partner!"

What is that great hideous chain you wear?

"The chain I forged in life!

I made it link by link and yard by yard!"

No!

"You don't believe in me,

do you?"

No, I don't!

You are an old rotten potato! (blahhh) (goooff)

(brrr) "Now... do you believe me?"

Yes, I do...

"Good...

you will be visited by three ghosts!"

No, I'd rather not!

"The first at one,

the second at two

And the third

whenever he feels like it!"

"Goodbye, Scrooge!"
