1:01:25
All right, Eliza, say it again.
1:01:28
"The rine in Spine...
1:01:31
...stais minely in the pline."
1:01:34
"The rain in Spain
stays mainly in the plain."

1:01:38
Didn't I saiy that?
1:01:39
No, Eliza, you didn't "saiy" that.
You didn't even "say" that.

1:01:43
Every night before you go to bed,
where you used to say your prayers...

1:01:46
...I want you to say:
1:01:48
"The rain in Spain
stays mainly in the plain."

1:01:51
Fifty times.
1:01:53
You'll get much further with the Lord
if you learn not to offend His ears.

1:01:57
Now for your "H"'s.
1:02:00
Pickering, this is going to be ghastly.
1:02:02
Control yourself, Higgins.
Give the girl a chance.

1:02:04
I suppose you can't expect her
to get it right the first time.

1:02:07
Come here, Eliza, and watch closely.
1:02:13
Now, you see that flame?
1:02:15
Every time you pronounce the letter "H"
correctly the flame will waver...

1:02:19
...and every time you drop your "H"
the flame will remain stationary.

1:02:22
That's how to know
you've done it correctly.

1:02:23
In time, your ear will hear the difference.
1:02:25
You'll see it better in the mirror.
Now listen carefully.

1:02:30
"In Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire...
1:02:33
...hurricanes hardly ever happen."
1:02:37
Now you repeat that after me.
1:02:40
"In Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire,
hurricanes hardly ever happen."

1:02:43
"In 'artford, 'ereford and 'ampshire
'urricanes 'ardly hever 'appen."

1:02:48
Oh, no, no!
1:02:50
Have you no ear at all?
1:02:52
- Should I do it over?
- No, please.

1:02:54
Start from the very beginning.
Just do this.
