Act 1
Sung By
When a maiden loves she sits and sighs
Phoebe Meryll
Tower Warders, under orders
People and Warders
This is the autumn of our life
Solo Warder
When our gallant Norman foes
Dame Carruthers and Warders
Alas! I waver to and fro
Phoebe Meryll, Leonard Meryll and Sergeant Meryll
Is life a boon?
Colonel Fairfax
Here's a man of jollity
Chorus
I have a song to sing, O!
Elsie Maynard and Jack Point
How say you, maiden, will you wed?
Elsie Maynard, Jack Point and Sir Richard Cholmondeley
I've jibe and joke and quip and crank
Jack Point
'Tis done! I am a bride!
Elsie Maynard
Were I thy bride
Phoebe Meryll
Oh, Sergeant Meryll, is it true-
Act 2
Sung By
Night has spread her pall once more
Chorus
Warders are ye?
Dame Carruthers
Oh! a private buffoon is a lighthearted loon
Jack Point
Hereupon we're both agreed
Jack Point and Wilfred Shadbolt
Free from his fetters grim
Colonel Fairfax
Strange adventure!
Kate, Dame Carruthers, Colonel Fairfax and Sergeant Meryll
Hark! What was that, sir?
Elsie Maynard, Phoebe Meryll, Dame Carruthers, Colonel Fairfax, Wilfred Shadbolt, Jack Point, Sir Richard Cholmondeley, Sergeant Meryll and Chorus
A man who would woo a fair maid
Elsie Maynard, Phoebe Meryll and Colonel Fairfax
When a wooer goes a-wooing
Elsie Maynard, Phoebe Meryll, Colonel Fairfax and Jack Point
Rapture! Rapture!
Dame Carruthers and Sergeant Meryll
Comes the pretty young bride
