CHORUS
Oh�察�dry the glist'ning tear
That dews that martial cheek��
Thy loving children hear��
In them thy comfort seek。
With sympathetic care
Their arms around thee creep��
For oh�察�they cannot bear
To see their father weep��
��Enter MABEL��
SOLOMABEL
Dear father�察�why leave your bed
At this untimely hour��
When happy daylight is dead��
And darksome dangers low'r��
See�察�heav'n has lit her lamp��
The midnight hour is past��
And the chilly night´air is damp��
And the dews are falling fast��
Dear father�察�why leave your bed
When happy daylight is dead��
GIRLS�此 �Oh�察�dry the glist'ning tear�察�etc。
��FREDERIC enters��
MABEL�此 �Oh�察�Frederic�察�cannot you�察�in the calm excellence of
your wisdom�察�reconcile it with your conscience to say
something that will relieve my father's sorrow��
FREDERIC�此�I will try�察�dear Mabel。 But why does he sit�察�night
after night�察�in this draughty old ruin��
GENERAL�此 �Why do I sit here�拭 �To escape from the pirates'
clutches�察�I described myself as an orphan�察�and�察�heaven
help me�察�I am no orphan� �I come here to humble myself
before the tombs of my ancestors�察�and to implore their
pardon for having brought dishonour on the family
escutcheon。
FREDERIC�此�But you forget�察�sir�察�you only bought the property a
year ago�察�and the stucco on your baronial castle is
scarcely dry。
GENERAL�此 �Frederic�察�in this chapel are ancestors�此�you cannot deny
that。 With the estate�察�I bought the chapel and its
contents。 I don't know whose ancestors they were�察�but
I know whose ancestors they are�察�and I shudder to think
that their descendant by purchase ��if I may so describe
myself�� should have brought disgrace upon what�察�I have
no doubt�察�was an unstained escutcheon。
FREDERIC�此�Be comforted。 Had you not acted as you did�察�these
reckless men would assuredly have called in the nearest
clergyman�察�and have married your large family on the
spot。
GENERAL�此 �I thank you for your proffered solace�察�but it is
unavailing。 I assure you�察�Frederic�察�that such is the
anguish and remorse I feel at the abominable falsehood
by which I escaped these easily deluded pirates�察�that I
would go to their simple´minded chief this very night
and confess all�察�did I not fear that the consequences
would be most disastrous to myself。 At what time does
your expedition march against these scoundrels��
FREDERIC�此�At eleven�察�and before midnight I hope to have atoned
for my involuntary association with the pestilent
scourges by sweeping them from the face of the earth
and then�察�dear Mabel�察�you will be mine��
GENERAL�此 �Are your devoted followers at hand��
FREDERIC�此�They are�察�they only wait my orders。
RECITGENERAL
Then�察�Frederic�察�let your escort lion´hearted
Be summoned to receive a gen'ral's blessing��
Ere they depart upon their dread adventure。
FREDERIC�此�Dear�察�sir�察�they come。
��Enter POLICE�察�marching in single file。 They form in line�察�facing
