Lesson 22-2

By heart

/baɪ/ /hɑːt/

One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke on his colleague

/wʌn/ /naɪt,/ /ðə/ /ˈʤeɪlə/ /dɪˈsaɪdɪd/ /tuː/ /pleɪ/ /ə/ /ʤəʊk/ /ɒn/ /hɪz/ /ˈkɒliːg/

to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed

/tuː/ /faɪnd/ /aʊt/ /ɪf,/ /ˈɑːftə/ /səʊ/ /ˈmɛni/ /pəˈfɔːmənsɪz,/ /hiː/ /hæd/ /ˈmænɪʤd/

to learn the contents of the letter by heart.

/tuː/ /lɜːn/ /ðə/ /ˈkɒntɛnts/ /ɒv/ /ðə/ /ˈlɛtə/ /baɪ/ /hɑːt./

The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed

/ðə/ /ˈkɜːtn/ /wɛnt/ /ʌp/ /ɒn/ /ðə/ /ˈfaɪnl/ /ækt/ /ɒv/ /ðə/ /pleɪ/ /ænd/ /rɪˈviːld/

the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. Just

/ði/ /ˈærɪstəkræt/ /ˈsɪtɪŋ/ /əˈləʊn/ /bɪˈhaɪnd/ /bɑːz/ /ɪn/ /hɪz/ /dɑːk/ /sɛl./ /ʤʌst/

then, the gaoler appeared with the precious letter in his

/ðɛn,/ /ðə/ /ˈʤeɪlər/ /əˈpɪəd/ /wɪð/ /ðə/ /ˈprɛʃəs/ /ˈlɛtər/ /ɪn/ /hɪz/

bands. He entered the cell and presented the letter to the

/bændz./ /hiː/ /ˈɛntəd/ /ðə/ /sɛl/ /ænd/ /prɪˈzɛntɪd/ /ðə/ /ˈlɛtə/ /tuː/ /ðiː/

aristocrat. But the copy he gave him had not been written

/ˈærɪstəkræt./ /bʌt/ /ðə/ /ˈkɒpi/ /hiː/ /geɪv/ /hɪm/ /hæd/ /nɒt/ /biːn/ /ˈrɪtn/

out in full as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper. The

/aʊt/ /ɪn/ /fʊl/ /æz/ /ˈjuːʒʊəl./ /ɪt/ /wɒz/ /ˈsɪmpli/ /ə/ /blæŋk/ /ʃiːt/ /ɒv/ /ˈpeɪpə./ /ðiː/

gaoler looked on eagerly,anxious to see if his fellow actor

/ˈʤeɪlə/ /lʊkt/ /ɒn//ˈiːgəli,/ /ˈæŋkʃəs/ /tuː/ /siː/ /ɪf/ /hɪz/ /ˈfɛləʊ/ /ˈæktə/

had at last learnt his lines. The noble stared at the blank

/hæd/ /æt/ /lɑːst/ /lɜːnt/ /hɪz/ /laɪnz./ /ðə/ /ˈnəʊbl/ /steəd//æt/ /ðə/ /blæŋk/

sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then,

/ʃiːt/ /ɒv/ /ˈpeɪpə/ /fɔːr/ /ə/ /fjuː/ /ˈsɛkəndz./ /ðɛn,/

squintinghis eyes, he said: "The light is dim. Read the letter

/ˈskwɪntɪŋ//hɪz/ /aɪz,/ /hiː/ /sɛd:/ /"ðə/ /laɪt/ /ɪz/ /dɪm./ /riːd/ /ðə/ /ˈlɛtə/

to me”. And he promptly

/tuː/ /miː”./ /ænd/ /hiː/ /ˈprɒmptli/

handed the sheet of paper to the gaoler. Finding that he

/ˈhændɪd/ /ðə/ /ʃiːt/ /ɒv/ /ˈpeɪpə/ /tuː/ /ðə/ /ˈʤeɪlə./ /ˈfaɪndɪŋ/ /ðæt/ /hiː/

could not remember a word of

/kʊd/ /nɒt/ /rɪˈmɛmbər/ /ə/ /wɜːd/ /ɒv/

the letter either, the gaoler replied: “The light is indeed dim,

/ðə/ /ˈlɛtər/ /ˈaɪðə,/ /ðə/ /ˈʤeɪlə/ /rɪˈplaɪd:/ /“ðə/ /laɪt/ /ɪz/ /ɪnˈdiːd/ /dɪm,/

sire, I must get my glasses.” With this, he hurried off the

/ˈsaɪə,/ /aɪ/ /mʌst/ /gɛt/ /maɪ/ /ˈglɑːsɪz.”/ /wɪð/ /ðɪs,/ /hiː/ /ˈhʌrɪd/ /ɒf/ /ðiː/

stage. Much to the aristocrat's amusement, the gaoler

/steɪʤ./ /mʌʧ/ /tuː/ /ði/ /ˈærɪstəkræts/ /əˈmjuːzmənt,/ /ðə/ /ˈʤeɪlə/

returned a few moments later with a pair of glasses and the

/rɪˈtɜːnd/ /ə/ /fjuː/ /ˈməʊmənts/ /ˈleɪtə/ /wɪð/ /ə/ /peər/ /ɒv/ /ˈglɑːsɪz/ /ænd/ /ðiː/

usual copy of the

/ˈjuːʒʊəl/ /ˈkɒpi/ /ɒv/ /ðiː/

letter with he proceeded to read to the prisoner.

/ˈlɛtə/ /wɪð/ /hiː/ /prəˈsiːdɪd/ /tuː/ /riːd/ /tuː/ /ðə/ /ˈprɪznə./
