[00:01.44] | Chapter 4 Merrick's First Home |
[00:07.31] | We gave Merrick two rooms at the back of the hospital. |
[00:11.89] | One room was a bathroom, |
[00:14.10] | so he could have a bath every day. |
[00:17.79] | Soon his skin was much better, |
[00:20.40] | and there was no horrible smell. |
[00:24.62] | The second room had a bed, table , and chairs. |
[00:30.86] | I visited him every day, and talked to him. |
[00:35.85] | He loved reading, and talking about books. |
[00:40.29] | At first he did not know many books: |
[00:44.62] | the Bible, and one or two newspapers, that's all. |
[00:49.69] | But I gave him some books of love stories, |
[00:52.91] | and he liked them very much. |
[00:55.83] | He read them again and again, |
[00:58.37] | and talked about them often. |
[01:01.32] | For him, the men and women in these books were alive, |
[01:05.86] | like you and me. He was very happy. |
[01:11.17] | But sometimes it was difficult for him. |
[01:15.60] | At first, one or two people in the hospital laughed |
[01:19.81] | at Merrick because he was ugly. |
[01:22.89] | Sometimes, they brought their friends to look at him. |
[01:28.51] | One day a new nurse came to the hospital, |
[01:32.76] | and nobody told her about Merrick. |
[01:36.72] | She took his food to his room, |
[01:39.42] | and opened the door. |
[01:41.30] | Then she saw him. |
[01:43.53] | She screamed, dropped the food on the floor, |
[01:47.49] | and ran out of the room. |
[01:50.28] | I was very angry with the nurse, |
[01:52.76] | and went to see Merrick. |
[01:55.67] | He was not happy about it, but he was not very angry. |
[02:00.69] | I think he felt sorry for the girl. |
[02:05.10] | 'People don't like looking at me. |
[02:09.63] | I know that, Dr 26Treves, 'he said. |
[02:14.49] | 'They usually laugh or scream. ' |
[02:19.57] | 'Well, I don't want nurses to laugh at you, Joseph, ' |
[02:24.47] | I said angrily. 'I want them to help you. ' |
[02:29.20] | 'Thank you, doctor, 'he said, in his strange slow voice. |
[02:38.22] | 'But it's not important. |
[02:41.75] | Everyone laughs at me. |
[02:45.34] | I understand that. ' |
[02:49.34] | I looked at him sadly. |
[02:52.39] | In his one good hand, his left hand, |
[02:56.45] | he had the little picture of his mother. |
[03:00.26] | He looked at the picture for a minute, |
[03:03.26] | and then put it by a flower on the table. |
[03:07.41] | A tear ran out of his eye and down the skin of his enormous, ugly face. |
[03:16.25] | 'Dr Treves, 'he said, slowly. |
[03:22.04] | 'You and the nurses arevery kind, |
[03:28.32] | and I'm very happy here. |
[03:32.13] | Thank you very much. |
[03:35.68] | But…I know I can't stay here long, |
[03:41.90] | and…I would like to live in a lighthouse, |
[03:48.11] | after the hospital, please. |
[03:51.97] | A lighthouse, or a home for blind people. |
[03:57.75] | I think those are the best places for me. |
[04:03.93] | 'What do you mean?'I ashed. 'Why?' |
[04:09.66] | He did not look at me. |
[04:12.30] | He put the flower on the picture and looked at it carefully. |
[04:18.55] | 'Lighthouses have sea all round them, don't they? ' |
[04:24.96] | he said. ' Nobody could look at me in a lighthouse, |
[04:31.40] | so I would be happy there. |
[04:35.40] | And blind people can see nothing, |
[04:40.65] | so they couldn't see me, could they?' |
[04:46.02] | 'But Joseph, 'I said. 'This is your home. |
[04:51.75] | You live here now. |
[04:54.59] | You aren't going to leave the hospital. ' |
[04:58.48] | 28'Not today, perhaps, 'he said. But soon. |
[05:06.86] | You are a kind man, Dr Treves. |
[05:11.98] | But I can't stay here very long. I have no money. ' |
[05:20.65] | I smiled. 'Joseph, I said. |
[05:25.44] | 'This is your home now. Don't you understand? |
[05:31.04] | You can stay here all your life. ' |
[05:35.96] | Very carefully, I told him about the letter to The Times, and the money. |
[05:44.09] | I don't think he understood at first, |
[05:47.52] | so I told him again. |
[05:50.76] | He was very quiet for a minute. |
[05:53.94] | Then he stood up, and walked up and down the room very quickly. |
[06:00.17] | A strange sound came from him, like laughing. |
