'My lectures. my lectures have to be seen' Mr Ages said talk to Lily and Jesus 'and heard to be depreciated to it a ancient roman temple and tunnels...of course they divie people...last time the whole audince hissed hissed. all except one man. he applauding the nissed'
Mr Ages going sing silly song with Lily and Jesus.
Mr Ages sing chorus: 'What am I going to talk about what am I going to do what ever it is i'll talk about you can be sure I't isn't new not new. not new.
I am an English lecturer the most famous of my time because I stick with the same old words and never change a a line.
not. not a line...
''my mother couldn't carry a tune' Mr Ages said a smile 'not even if it had handles. silly old trout. But then five doors and open doors. four men. names Nihilus Norah Alexander and Judah. and one woman. name Ruth. they were indeed a queer-looking party. 'A most depressing venue.. the distemper's coming off at the knees..still the qudience look lively enough. that's the main thing.. I mean they're not dead yet; 'what your names if it isn't a rude question, 'Lily said Lily smile 'Jesus' said Jesus smile 'Lily and Jesus what a beautiful names' Mr Ages ask.
'Oh dear you two all wet!' said Ruth 'Sit down all of you, and listen to me! I'll soon make you dry enough!' they all sat down. at once, in a ring with Mr Ages in the middle Lily and Jesus kept eyes anxiously fixed on it, for Lily and Jesus felt sure she would catch a bad cold if Lily and Jesus did not get dry very soon. 'Ahem! said Mr Ages with important air. 'get on with it! said Judah 'Are you ready this the driest thing I know silence all round, if you please! how then. Mr ages tell about history with ancient Egypt to Jerusalem 'How are you two getting on now my dears.! Mr ages ask Lily and Jesus. 'We all as we as ever. it doe sh't. Lily said
Nihilus in an offended tone, 'was that the best thing to get us dry would be a caucus-race! 'what a caucus-race! said Lily 'A CAUCUS-RACE A CAUCUS-RACE said Ruth yelling 'yes we talking now what a caucus-race! said Jesus 'not that Lily and Jesus wanted much to know. but Mr Ages had paused as if it thought that somebody ought to speak, and no one else see med inclined to say anything . 'the best way to explain a caucus-race is-to do it' Frist it marked out a Race-course 'on you marks. get set go! Mr Ages start race, in a sort of circle. 'it's a blistering race! an extraordinary display of skill, determination and sheer stupidity! and then all the party were placed along the course, here and there 'Hey they're all cheating! said Jesus 'that're caucus-race my boy! said Mr Ages but they began running when they like, and lef off when they liked.
So that was not easy to know when the race was over. 'so perish all enemies of the tsar! said Nihilius 'and there's more where came from! said Judah. 'so you think I'm a cheat d you! said Noah, 'no just deformed. unless he's certified! said Alexander 'however when they had been the race is over, 'Look! 'Look! the finishing post! said Noah 'who won! who won! said Ruth 'I vouch safe that everybody won. said Judah .but who to give the prize! quite a chorus of voices asked. 'why Lily of course! Lily had no idea what to do. and in despair she put her hand in her pocket. and pulled out box of comfits. (luckily the salt water had not got into it,) and handed them round. 'I think it's time we were all bed with cup of water' said Ruth 'indubitably! said Nihilus. so Mr Ages Nihilus Noah Alexander Judah and Ruth move off. 'Hey where are all you going wait, said Jesus to sit down and Lily to 'don't worry Lily every is gonna be alright.
