[00:08.871]I didn't know that Henry VIII was married more than once
[00:14.454]Or Shelley was a poet
[00:16.605]I didn't know Alexander the Great had conquered most of Greece
[00:22.266]Or people came from monkeys
[00:24.441]I didn't know that the Garden of Eden was all just a beautiful myth...
[00:30.972]
[00:32.383]I never read Great Expectations
[00:36.071]Summer On The Lake

[00:54.463]
[00:55.258]Once upon a time
[00:57.155]O Captain! My Captain!
[00:59.393]I'm so many years behind

[01:08.435]I didn't know that she'd be so clever!

[01:19.967]I really must re-read
[01:21.645]The Count of Monte Cristo
[01:23.323]
[01:23.764]What am I thinking? I'm missing appointments
[01:27.300]To read what she studied in French
[01:31.042]I'm baffled and perplexed
[01:33.064]O Captain! My Captain!
[01:35.061]I really must get back to work
[01:38.883]I wonder what she'll write me next...
[01:41.897]
[01:42.408]
[01:42.859]I never heard of Meg, Jo, Beth or Amy
[01:46.664]I'd never been to Dover Beach

[01:55.393]
[01:55.759]I feel like The Idiot
[01:58.937]Or the Toilers Of The Sea
[02:01.162]O Captain! My Captain!
[02:03.461]All the world is verse to me
[02:07.369]A lady with a lamp I see...
[02:11.486]
[02:12.093]I'd never heard the moonlight sonata, a Chopin Polonaise, a Brandenburg Concerto
[02:20.260]I didn't know that Lillian Russell triumphed on the stage
[02:25.865]Or Monet was a painter
[02:28.156]And you may laugh at me
[02:30.151]I thought George Elliot was without a question a man
[02:35.844]I'm opening my mind
[02:37.804]O Captain! My Captain!
[02:40.151]I'm so many years behind
[02:44.518]I'm still so many years behind
[02:49.168]
[02:50.726]Now, Daddy, I must sleep
[02:54.461]But I will think of you
[02:58.961]For, Daddy, I know there is still much catching up to do
[03:08.637]
