Lord Simon Centerville Ghost

Леди за столом. Лорд присаживается. Леди стучит чайной ложкой, размешивая сахар.

Stop doing this. Она опять. 

Don`t do this. Why are you nervous?

Lady  Centerville

I don`t know. Why do you shout at me every day?

Стук ложки. Он сидит какое-то время, потом хватает нож и убивает ее.

Lord Centerville.настоящее время,хозяин замка

So Lady Eleanore de Centerville was murdered by her own husband, Sir Simon de Centerville, in 1575. Sir Simon disappeared suddenly under very mysterious things. His body has never been found, but his  spirit still walks in  the  Centerville castle.

Сцена 2 «Сделка»

Lord Centerville

Sir, I must be honest with you Mr. Otis. There is something very strange about this house.

Mr. Otis

And what is that strange about the place?

Lord Centerville

There is a ghost.  Oh, these mysterious noises that come from the corridor and the library.

Mr. Otis

Really, My Lord. Can I have a look at it?

Lord Centerville

It doesn`t appear when you want him to. But I fear that the ghost lives in the castle.. It was seen many times by the servants and members of my family.

Mr. Otis

OK I will buy your Ghost.

Lord Centerville

What? You want to buy a Ghost? I don`t understand.

Mr. Otis

What don`t you understand? You sell the ghost, I buy it.

Lord Centerville

But I am not selling a family ghost. I will give it to you for free.

Mr. Otis

Oh, you are a very rich man, Lord Centerville. And you can give such presents.

Lord Centerville

OK if you don't mind a ghost in the house, it is all right. Only you must remember I warned you.

Подписывают договор.

Mrs. Umney-гувернантка

Welcome to the Centerville castle.

Все семейство входит, осматривается.

Virginia

What`s this?

Mrs. Umney

It is an old prophecy. Nobody can read it.

Mrs. Otis

I am afraid something has been spilt there.

Mrs. Umney

(низким таинственным голосом) Yes, madam, blood has been spilt on that spot.

Mrs. Otis

Oh, how terrible!. I don't want any blood-stains in my sitting-room. It must be removed at once.

Mrs. Umney

But it`s impossible, Madam. It is the blood of Lady Eleanore de Centerville, who was murdered on that very spot by her own husband, Sir Simon de Centerville, 3 hundred years ago. His spirit still walks in the castle. Tourists like  this blood-stain.

Mr. Otis

Присоединяется. What are you looking at?

Mrs. Otis

A blood stain. This Lady says it can`t be removed.

Mr. Otis

That is all nonsense. Pinkerton's Champion Stain Remover will clean it up in a moment. Look.

(Стирает пятно). That`s all. I knew Pinkerton will  do it. And you are talking about ghosts.

(Молния освещает комнату.  Mrs. Umney падает в обморок.) What a monstrous climate! England is so densely populated that the luck of weather is obvious.  

Mrs. Otis

Oh, my dear, what can we do with a woman who faints?'

Mr. Otis

Wait! Брызгает водой в лицо

Mrs. Umney поднимается, начинает убирать со стола.

Mrs. Umney

I have seen terrific things in this castle. Be careful with the ghost. It is his blood-stain.

Twin 1

When will it appear at last?

Twin 2

When? When?

Mr. Otis

Be patient, children.  Lord Centerville seems to be an honest person.  Come. And let`s look at the other rooms.

Mr. Otis спит. Входит привидение. Оно издает страшные звуки, звенит цепями.

Mr. Otis

My dear sir, I really must insist on your oiling those chains. They make very loud noise. It`s impossible to sleep. Take this small bottle of the Machine oil. I shall leave it here for you on the table. And I will be happy to supply you with more if you need.

(Дает привидению бутылку и ложится спать. Привидение бросает бутылку на пол.)

Twin 1

(Уходит. Появляются близнецы. У них в руках подушки. Они начинают кидать подушки в приведение.

Приведение проливает краску на пол.) 

Pillows are of no use here. We`d better pick up some stones.

Twin 2

Great. Next time… He won`t escape.   

Mrs. Otis

(Далее идет к выходу и натыкается на  Mrs. Otis) I am afraid you are not well. Do you have troubles? I have brought you a bottle of Dr. Dobell’s mixture, it will help you quickly.

 Близнецы натягивают веревку, приведение спотыкается, падает. Они отрывают у него кусочек одежды. Дерутся из-за него.

Twin 1

Give me. It`s mine. I was the first.

Twin 2

I`m not a fool. For this piece of cloth I will get 1 hundred dollars.

(Вдруг кусок исчезает. Ребята убегают.)

Ghost

No, no, no. I can`t stand any longer. Fool me, throw pillows at me, suggest machine oil and mixture. To me, the horror of the Centerville castle. But some time ago I made women scream and faint, men shout and run.

Вздыхает, уходит. Утро.

Входит Mrs. Umney, накрывает на чай. Появляется вся семья.

Mr. Otis

I have no wish to do the ghost any personal trouble, and I don't think it is polite to throw pillows at him. On the other hand, if he doesn`t use the Machine oil, we will  have to take his chains from him. It would be impossible to sleep, with such a noise.

Mrs. Otis

Замечает пятно на полу.

What`s this?

Twin 1

What`s it?

Twin 2

You can`t understand. It is green blood.

Mrs. Umney

I said to you it must be he. I cannot sleep. I cannot close my eyes at night. And you can see the blood again.

Mr. Otis

I clearly remember removing the stain myself yesterday and locked the door with the key. Perhaps it was really a ghost who did it. And the stain is green today.

OK Pinkerton's Champion Stain Remover will clean it up.(Очищает все пятновыводителем) 

Twin 1

Father, let’s talk to him.

Virginia

Please, don`t do any harm to him. (Близнецы смеются)

Вирджиния в комнате одна. Она рассматривает стены, потом прислушивается. Входит привидение. Он не замечает ее – идет рисовать пятно на полу.  Тихонько подходит.  

Virginia

I am so sorry for you, but no one will annoy you.

Ghost

It is absurd asking me to be quiet… Quite absurd. I must rattle my chains, and groan through keyholes, and walk at night. It is my only reason for living.

Virginia

But  you have been very wicked. Mrs. Umney told us, the first day we arrived here, that you had killed your wife.

Ghost

Well, it was a  family matter.

Virginia

It is very wrong to kill any one.

Ghost

Oh, my wife was very plain and knew nothing about cookery. However, I don't think it was very nice of her brothers to starve me to death, and  I killed her.

Virginia

Starve you to death? Oh, Mr. Ghost, I mean Sir Simon, are you hungry? I have a sandwich in my case. Would you like it?

Ghost

No, thank you, I never eat anything now; but it is very kind of you. You are much nicer than the rest of your family.

Virginia

Stop! (топает ногой) It is you who are rude, and horrid, and vulgar. And  you stole the paints out of my box. First you took all my reds, then you took the green and the yellow. I was very much annoyed.

Ghost

Well, really, what was I to do? It is a very difficult thing to get real blood nowadays. As for colour, that is always a matter of taste: the Centervilles have blue blood, the very bluest in England. (Вирджиния хочет уйти).

Please don't go, Miss Virginia, I am so lonely and so unhappy, and I really don't know what to do. I have not slept for three hundred years

Virginia

Poor, poor Ghost, have you no place where you can sleep?

Ghost

Have you seen the old prophecy on the library window?

Virginia

Oh, often. I know it quite well. It is difficult to read.

When a golden girl can win
Prayer from out the lips of sin,
When the barren almond bears,
And a little child gives away its tears,
Then shall all the house be still
And peace come to Canterville.

But I don't know what they mean.

Ghost

They mean that you must  pray with me for my soul and then, if you have always been sweet, and good, and gentle, the Angel of Death will have mercy on me.  The old  almond-tree will be in blossom.

Virginia

I am not afraid, and I will ask the Angel to have mercy on you.

Voices 1

Come back, little Virginia.  Come back.

Voices 2

Beware! Little Virginia, beware! We may never see you again.

Mrs. Otis

Oh, again. (Глядя на пятно) 

Twin 1

We`ll see who wins next time.

Twin 2

Yes, we`ll see.

Virginia

No one will do any harm to him.

Mr. Otis

Good heavens! Child, where have you been? You must never play these practical jokes any more.

Twins

Except on the Ghost! Except on the Ghost!

Mrs. Otis

My  darling, thank God you are found. You must never leave my side again.

Virginia

I have been with the Ghost. He is dead, and you must come and see him. He had been very wicked, but he was really sorry for all that he had done, and he gave me this box of beautiful jewels before he died.

Mr. Otis

What? What do you mean by he is dead? This castle doesn`t cost the money I paid without a Ghost in it. And by the way, do you know that your Ghost killed his own wife.

Virginia

She was very plain and knew nothing about cookery.

Twin 1

Hallo! Hallo! The old  almond-tree has blossomed. I can see the flowers quite clearly in the moonlight.

Twin 2

Right, look.

Virginia

God has forgiven him
