ð vs. θ
This one is thinner than the third.

I think that this is the thing that they want.

There are thirty-three thousand feathers on their throats. 

Not these things here, but those things there.

Bang bang and the Kings
Mr Pring: Bang! Bang! Bang! What are the Kings doing at six o’clock on Sunday
morning? 

Mrs Pring: Well, Mr King is standing on a ladder and banging some nails into the
wall with a hammer. 

Mr Pring: And what’s Mrs King doing? 

Mrs Pring: She’s bringing something pink for Mr King to drink, she’s putting it
under the ladder, and ... Ohh! 

Mr Pring: What’s happening? 

Mrs Pring: The ladder’s falling! And Mrs King is running to our house. And now
she’s ringing our bell. 

Mr Pring: I’m not going to answer it. I’m sleeping.
