A collector's piece indeed |
| [00:53.510] |
every detail exactly as she said |
| [00:59.200] |
She often spoke of you, my friend |
| [01:02.940] |
Your velvet lining and your figurine of lead |
| [01:08.770] |
Will you still play when all the rest of us are dead? |

Lot 666, then |
| [01:20.670] |
A chandelier in pieces |
| [01:22.940] |
Some of you may recall the strange affair of the Phantom of the Opera |
| [01:28.000] |
A mystery never fully explained |
| [01:30.170] |
We are told, ladies and gentlemen |
| [01:32.020] |
that this is the very chandelier which figures in the famous disaster |
| [01:36.990] |
Our workshops have restored it |
| [01:39.500] |
and fitted all parts of it with wiring for the new electric light |
| [01:42.900] |
so that we may get a hint of what it may look like when reassembled |
| [01:46.940] |
Perhaps we may frighten away the ghost of so many years ago |
| [01:51.590] |
with a little illumination |
| [01:53.630] |
gentlemen |
