l like that name.
Sparrow.

:10:08
We'll only use it
if you like it.

:10:10
And forgive your schoolmates,
they aren't so bad.

:10:13
Someday you'll
laugh at them.

:10:21
lt's very good.
:10:27
Quiet! Quiet!
:10:30
Sit down!
:10:31
Today we have
a new pupil.

:10:34
That is a joy for all
:10:37
and we shall greet him
with applause.

:10:43
Very good.
:10:45
Pull up that chair
and sit down next to me.

:10:51
Today we'll begin
with a poem.

:10:54
Who?
:10:56
Romualdo.
What will you read?

:11:00
A poem, sir.
:11:02
Which one?
:11:03
Antonio Machado's
''Childhood Memory''.

:11:06
Very good. Go ahead.
:11:08
Remember,
:11:09
slowly and clearly.
And watch the punctuation.

Monotony of rain
behind the windows.

:11:25
The classroom. A picture.
:11:27
shows Cain, fugitive,
:11:30
and Abel dead,
:11:31
next to a crimson stain.''
:11:34
What does...
:11:35
''monotony of rain'' mean,
Romualdo?

:11:37
When it rains, it pours,
Don Gregorio. - Good.

:11:40
Now, a dictation...
:11:45
Hello.
:11:47
Come in, come in.
:11:48
How are you?
:11:49

:11:53
l don't understand.
:11:55
Yesterday l gave him
