Though it is higher than 23 usual, and the rain is still coming down hard. 32 BRER RABBIT: (to the audience) Well, that wasn’t too bad. 42 If getting my feet a little wet is the most unfortunate thing 54 that happens tonight, I’ll be just fine. (He shakes off the 65 wetness and looks around. Then, putting his hand to his ear, 76 he listens for a moment.) Music! I do believe I hear a party 89 shaping up! (He rubs his hands together eagerly.) And that 99 means dancing, and dancing means food to feed the dancers, 109 and that means a fine time is had by all. (He heads offstage 122 with a hop, skip, and a jump.) 129 NARRATOR 2: And indeed, a fine time is had by all, 139 especially Brer Rabbit, who doesn’t give another thought to 148 the weather.
