    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

    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!

    A man who would woo a fair maid
    Elsie Maynard, Phoebe Meryll and Colonel Fairfax

    Rapture! Rapture!
    Dame Carruthers and Sergeant Meryll
    Comes the pretty young bride
