Помогите пожалуйста Нужно переписать текст в past A first-person narrative told by Paul

Edgecombe, the novel switches between Paul as an old man in the Georgia Pines nursing home sharing his story with fellow resident Elaine Connelly in 1996, and his time in 1932 as the block supervisor of the Cold Mountain Penitentiary death row, nicknamed "The Green Mile" for the color of the floor's linoleum. This year marks the arrival of John Coffey, a 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) tall powerfully built black man who has been convicted of raping and murdering two small white girls. During his time on the Mile, John interacts with fellow prisoners Eduard "Del" Delacroix, a Cajun arsonist, rapist, and murderer, and William Wharton ("Billy the Kid" to himself, "Wild Bill" to the guards), a wild-acting and dangerous multiple murderer who is determined to make as much trouble as he can before he is executed. Other inhabitants include Arlen Bitterbuck, a Native American convicted of killing a man in a fight over a pair of boots (also the first character to die in the electric chair); Arthur Flanders, a real estate executive who killed his father to perpetrate insurance fraud, and whose sentence is eventually commuted to life imprisonment (while serving his sentence, he is killed by another inmate in the laundry room); and Mr. Jingles, a mouse, to whom Del teaches various tricks. Paul and the other guards are irritated throughout the book by Percy Wetmore, a sadistic guard who enjoys antagonizing the prisoners. The other guards have to be civil to him despite their dislike of him because he is the nephew of the Governor's wife. When Percy is offered a position at the nearby Briar Ridge psychiatric hospital as a secretary, Paul thinks they are finally rid of him. However, Percy refuses to leave until he is allowed to supervise an execution, so Paul hesitantly allows him to run Del's. Percy deliberately avoids soaking a sponge in brine that is supposed to be tucked inside the electrode cap to ensure a quick death in the electric chair. When the switch is thrown, the current causes Del to catch fire in the chair and suffer a prolonged, agonizing demise. Over time, Paul realizes that John possesses inexplicable healing abilities, which he uses to cure Paul's urinary tract infection and revive Mr. Jingles after Percy stomps on him. Simple-minded and shy, John is very empathic and sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others around him. One night, the guards drug Wharton, then put a straitjacket on Percy and lock him in the padded restraint room so that they can smuggle John out of the prison and take him to the home of Warden Hal Moores. Hal's wife Melinda has an inoperable brain tumor, which John cures. When they return to the Mile, John passes the "disease" from Melinda into Percy, causing him to go mad and shoot Wharton to death before falling into a catatonic state from which he never recovers. Percy is committed to Briar Ridge. Paul's long-simmering suspicions that John is innocent are proven right when he discovers that it was actually William Wharton who raped and killed the twin sisters and that John was trying to revive them. Later John tells Paul what he saw when Wharton grabbed his arm one time, how Wharton had coerced the sisters to be silent by threatening to kill one if the other made a noise, using their love for each other. Paul is unsure how to help John, but John tells him not to worry, as he is ready to die anyway, wanting to escape the cruelty of the world. John's execution is the last one in which Paul participates. He introduces Mr. Jingles to Elaine just before the mouse dies, having lived 64 years past these events, and explains that those healed by John gained an unnaturally long lifespan. Elaine dies shortly after, never learning how Paul's wife died in his arms immediately after they suffered a bus accident, and that he then saw John Coffey's ghost watching him from an overpass. Paul seems to be all alone, now 104 years old, and wondering how much longer he will live.

A first-person narrative told by Paul Edgecombe, the novel switches between Paul as an old man in the Georgia Pines nursing home, sharing his story with fellow resident Elaine Connelly in 1996, and his time in 1932 as the block supervisor of the Cold Mountain Penitentiary death row, nicknamed "The Green Mile" for the color of the floor's linoleum.

In 1932, the death row receives its newest inmate, John Coffey, a 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) tall, powerfully built black man convicted of raping and murdering two small white girls. During his time on the Mile, John interacts with fellow prisoners: Eduard "Del" Delacroix, a Cajun arsonist, rapist, and murderer; and William Wharton ("Billy the Kid" to himself, "Wild Bill" to the guards), a dangerous multiple murderer determined to cause trouble before his execution.

Other inhabitants of the death row include Arlen Bitterbuck, a Native American convicted of killing a man in a fight over a pair of boots (he is the first character to die in the electric chair); Arthur Flanders, a real estate executive who killed his father for insurance fraud, later killed by another inmate in the laundry room; and Mr. Jingles, a mouse, to whom Del teaches various tricks.

Paul and the other guards are constantly irritated by Percy Wetmore, a sadistic guard who enjoys tormenting the prisoners. Despite their dislike for him, they have to be civil due to Percy being the nephew of the Governor's wife. When Percy is offered a position at a nearby psychiatric hospital, Paul thinks they are finally rid of him. However, Percy refuses to leave until he is allowed to supervise an execution. Paul reluctantly allows him to oversee Del's execution.

During Del's execution, Percy deliberately avoids soaking a sponge in brine, which is supposed to ensure a quick death in the electric chair. As a result, Del catches fire in the chair and suffers a prolonged and agonizing demise.

Over time, Paul discovers that John possesses inexplicable healing abilities. John cures Paul's urinary tract infection and revives Mr. Jingles after Percy stomps on him. John is simple-minded and shy but highly empathic and sensitive to others' thoughts and feelings.

One night, the guards drug Wharton and lock Percy in a straitjacket in the padded restraint room so that they can secretly take John to the home of Warden Hal Moores. Hal's wife, Melinda, has an inoperable brain tumor, which John miraculously cures. Upon their return to the Mile, John passes the "disease" from Melinda into Percy, driving him insane. Percy shoots Wharton to death before falling into a catatonic state from which he never recovers. Percy is committed to Briar Ridge.

As the story unfolds, Paul's long-held suspicions that John is innocent are proven right when he discovers that it was actually William Wharton who raped and murdered the two girls.
