Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Old Oaken Bucket: A Rural Drama in Four Acts Act I. - Farmyard at the Hardacre farm. "Reuben, you air so sot." "Jedge not." The village gossip makes things lively. Jake´s love-making draws down a bucket of water upon his shaggy head as merry Teddy laughingly refuses him. The young artist recognizes a villain and also makes a conquest at the old well. Mark´s education and good looks captivate Lizzie. "Meet me at the old log cabin at midnight." "Oh, Uncle, forgive me." Act II - Interior Hardacre farm house. The early risers. Even Ted gets up early to pick flowers. The Artist´s folio. "Well I´ll be darned if that don´t look just like Ted." Best blue dining set for breakfast. An important guest. The discovery of Lizzie´s plight. "You read the letter, Tom, I can´t." Sapphira bobs in. "I shudder to think I might have been drawed away." Reuben has a word to say to Sapphira. "Ain´t nobody goin´ to say a word agin´ me or mine without gettin´ acquainted with the way to the front door." True hearts and gingham skirts. Tom goes to find Lizzie. "He´ll answer fer it with his life." Act III - Two years later. A winter evening. Jake reads the village paper. Laketown gettin´ met-ro-pol-i-tan. Renews suit. "Gals is queer critters." "If you don´t take me Ted, I´ll go and propose to Miry Jones." A second rebuff, - "I hate to see you lose a good thing, Ted." Tarnal wood box empty again. The Artist´s return. "You have never even written." The picture, "The Old Oaken Bucket," that brought fame and money. Happy hearts. Aunt Martha´s amazement. A stormy night - and a knock at the door. "Its Lizzie." The wanderer´s return. Uncle Reuben´s great joy. "You ain´t been away from our hearts a minute." "God bless you for your sweet forgiveness." Act IV - One week later. Ted´s wedding day. The happy household. A surprise party. Snow, sleighbells and merriment. The country dance. Ezry Babb calls off.
