[00:03.69]Chapter 6 [00:06.82]Three days later, [00:08.20]in the big,new cemetery two miles from their house, [00:11.77]the two old people said goodbye to their dead son． [00:15.94]Then they went back to their dark,old house． [00:20.31]They did not want to live without Herbert, [00:23.40]but they waited for something good to happen, [00:25.91]something to help them． [00:28.31]The days went by very slowly． [00:31.51]Sometimes they did not talk [00:33.72]because there was nothing to say without Herbert． [00:36.77]And so the days felt very long． [00:39.83]Then,one night,about a week later, [00:44.37]Mrs White got out of bed because she could not sleep． [00:48.65]She sat by the window and she watched and waited for her son． [00:53.57]He did not come and she began to cry quietly． [00:58.04]In the dark her husband heard her and he called, [01:01.81]'Come back to bed． It's cold out there．' [01:06.77]'It's colder for my son,'his wife answered． [01:11.15]'He's out there in the cold cemetery．' [01:14.81]Mrs White did not go back to bed, [01:18.22]but Mr White was old and tired and the bed was warm． [01:22.96]So, in the end, he went to sleep again． [01:26.77]Suddenly he heard a cry from his wife． [01:29.86]'The paw!' she cried．'The monkey's paw!' [01:34.68]She came back to the bed and stood there． [01:38.14]'What is it ? What's the matter?'Mr White cried． [01:43.11]He sat up in bed． [01:45.14]'What's the matter? 'he thought． [01:48.12]'Why is she excited? [01:50.24]What's she talking about?' [01:52.41]He looked at his wife． [01:54.35]Her face was very white in the dark． [01:57.96]'I want it,'she said quietly, [02:01.30]'and you've got it! Give it to me! Please!' [02:06.24]'What?' Mr White asked． [02:09.25]'The monkey's paw, [02:11.33]Mrs White said．'Where is it?' [02:14.35]'It's downstairs, Mr White answered．'Why?' [02:19.86]Mrs White began to laugh and cry． [02:23.47]'We can have two more wishes! ' [02:25.77]she cried． 'We had one-but there are two more!' [02:30.74]'Oh,no!Not again! [02:33.47]Think, woman!' Mr White cried． [02:37.03]But Mrs White did not listen． [02:39.65]'Quickly,' she said ． [02:41.70]'Go and get the paw． [02:43.95]We're going to wish for our boy to come back to us!' [02:47.69]'No!' Mr White cried．'You're mad!' [02:52.20]'Get it! Get it quickly!' Mrs White cried again． [02:57.58]Mr White said again, [02:59.37]'Think, woman! Think! [03:02.21]Our boy was in the machinery for a long time． [03:06.55]They didn't want to show him to us! [03:09.29]Think!Do you want to see his body?' [03:13.37]'Yes! He's my son． [03:16.41]I'm not afraid of him!' she answered． [03:19.80]'You don't understand,' [03:22.99]Mr White said sadly, [03:25.04]but he went downstairs to look for the monkey's paw． [03:29.12]In the living-room it was dark and Mr White did not have a candle． [03:35.15]Slowly, he went across the room [03:37.40]and he put out his hand for the monkey's paw． [03:41.21]He touched it, and quickly took his hand away again． [03:44.87]'No!' he thought．'I can't! [03:49.34]I don't want to see Herbert! [03:51.93]His face-after he was in the machinery… no!' [03:57.68]Then he thought about his wife- [04:00.15]and he put out his hand and took the paw． [04:03.38]In the bedroom his wife waited． [04:06.98]She saw the paw in Mr White's hand and cried, [04:10.46]'Quick! Make the wish!' [04:13.87]'I can't,'Mr White answered． [04:17.22]'Remember-he died in the machinery!' [04:21.64]'Make the wish! [04:23.49]I'm not afraid of my own son!'Mrs White cried again． [04:29.52]Mr White looked sadly at his wife, [04:32.41]but he took the paw in his right hand and said slowly, [04:36.52]'I wish for my son, Herbert, to come back to us．' [04:43.18]then he sat down in the nearest chair． [04:46.53]But Mrs White went over to the window and looked out into the road． [04:51.79]She stayed there for a long time and she did not move． [04:56.33]Nothing happened． [04:58.29]The monkey's paw could not do it! [05:01.12]'Thank God!'Mr White said,and he went back to bed． [05:07.35]Soon Mrs White went to bed too．
