//Enter ROSCOE and BARNEY with the Watch // Be ye good men and true? Well, they better be. First, who be in charge o this rag tag band o misfits? That’d be me, Mr. Roscoe; I’d be the one that kin read an’ write. Come here, neighbor. Readin’ and writin’ is good thangs, but you caint toss a goat forty feet if you cain’t cipher. But we ain’t got no goats, Roscoe. Tha’ts no problem. If’n you ain’t got no goats, a small pig’ll do. Say, you three neighbors will be on night watch tonight. If’n you be a seein’ a goat or a pig, and he be lookin’ suspicious, ast him whut he be a doin’ and then see’s jus’ whut he’ll tell ya afore you let him go. Ifn’ you see a stranger by moonlight, and he commences to daince, don’t disturb his cosmic energy. If’n you here a howlin’ that shakes a chill up and down yer bones, apply them handcuffs. What if’n we happens upon some thief up to no darn good? Invite him to church on Sundy and send him away on a good mule. If he’s a thief up to no good, he ain’t a true mountain man anyways. Take no notice of the moonlight and don’t go into the water fer 2 hours after you eat. We would rather sleep than talk; we be a knowin’ our jobs. Watch out closely fer drunks as you don’t want to accidently shoot one. How will they know who we are, if’n they be a drunk? What do ya thank, ding bat. Tell ‘em they’re a drunk after they sober up. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">If we know him to be a thief, shall we not catch ‘em up and throw ‘em on the ground? <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">If’n he’s a true thief, he’ll steal away from he, so jus’ don’t bother. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">You have been always called a merciful man, partner. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Truly, I would not hang a dog by my will, much more a man who hast any honesty in him. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">If you hear a child cry in the night, you must call to the nurse and git her to that child. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">What if’n the nurse is asleep and caint hear us? <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Then go in peace, for the wolf that howls in the night awakens the mornin’ dew with a rooster’s crow in the pale moonlight of a limpid pool. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">'Tis very true. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">If’n you run into Cap’n Jethro, don’t arrest ‘em if’n he’s awake. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">If’n he’s asleep, don’t arrest him, neither. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Most importantly, remember you are the Watch and whatever you be a doin’, don’t bother nobody. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Shhhhhhhhhh………………… <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Away Barney! Let’s be a leavin’ these fine men to their work. Any questions? Come, neighbour. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Well boys, Let’s git some sleep, shall we? <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">One word more, honest neighbours. I pray you watchabout Mr. Jedediah's door; for the wedding being there to-morry, it could be somethin’ a happenin’ tonight. //<span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Exit ROSCOE and BARNEY //
