- I am the Ghost of Christmas Past
- Marley's ghost comes to visit Scrooge to warn him about how he must change. Scrooge can't believe it and says that the supernatural events are due to 'an undigested bit of beef'.
- Poor Boy!
- Scrooge was distressed by what he had seen, Marley on the door knocker, the bells ringing, and Marley the Ghost so he fell asleep upon the instant.
- The clock bell sounded at the hour of one. A light flashed in the room; it was the Ghost of Christmas Past. This ghost had 'child's proportions' and 'held a branch of fresh holly in its hand'
