Charlotte's Web1973

Wilbur:
[about Zuckerman raising him to be slaughtered] Is it true what the old sheep says? Is that awful thing true?!

Goose:
It's a dirty-irty trick, but it's true.

Wilbur:
I don't want to die! I want to stay here in my warm manure pile! I want to breathe the beautiful air, and lie in the beautiful sun!

Old Sheep:
[dryly] You're certainly making a beautiful noise.

Wilbur:
[breaking into tears] I don't want to die! I don't want to die!

Charlotte:
[speaking for the first time, this time from an unseen location] Quiet, Wilbur! Now chin up!

Wilbur:
Who said that?

Charlotte:
Do you want a friend?

Wilbur:
Yes, I want a friend. But I want to live, too!

Charlotte:
Well, chin up. I'll be your friend and I'll try to save your life. I've been watching you, and I like you.

Wilbur:
I can't see you. What do you mean "chin up"?

Charlotte:
Now go to sleep. You'll see me in the morning, and I'll explain everything then.

Narrator:
Wilbur's stomach was empty, and his mind was full. And when your stomach is empty and your mind is full, it's always hard to sleep. But sleep and Wilbur finally found each other.
