THESPIS, OR, THE GODS GROWN OLD: Little Maid of Arcadee. TRIAL BY JURY: When first my old, old love I knew; When I, good friends, was call'd to the bar; With a sense of deep emotion; O gentlemen, listen I pray. THE SORCERER: Time was, when Love and I; Welcome joy! adieu to sadness!; My name is John Wellington Wells; Dear friends, take pity on my lot. H.M.S. PINAFORE, OR, THE LASS THAT LOVED A SAILOR: We sail the ocean blue; I'm called little Buttercup; A maiden fair to see; I am the captain of the 'Pinafore'; I am the monarch of the sea; When I was a lad; Never mind the why and wherefore; He is an Englishman!. THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE, OR, THE SLAVE OF DUTY: Oh, better far to live and die; Poor wand'ring one; I am the very model of a modern Major-General; When the foeman bares his steel; When you had left our pirate fold; When a felon's not engaged in his employment; With cat-like tread. PATIENCE, OR, BUNTHORNE'S BRIDE: I cannot tell what this love may be; If you want a receipt; Am I alone, And unobserved?; Prithee, pretty maiden; Sad is that woman's lot; A magnet hung in a hardware shop; So go to him; When I go out the door. IOLANTHE, OR, THE PEER AND THE PERI: Tripping hither, tripping thither; Loudly let the trumpet bray (March of the Peers); The law is the true embodiment; Spurn not the nobly born; When I went to the Bar; When all night long a chap remains; When Britain really rul'd the waves; Oh, foolish fay; Love, unrequited (Nightmare song); If you go in. PRINCESS IDA, OR, CASTLE ADAMANT: If you give me your attention; Expressive glances; I am a maiden; A Lady fair; Would you know the kind of maid; Whene'er I spoke; This helmet, I suppose. THE MIKADO, OR, THE TOWN OF TITIPU: A wand'ring minstrel I; Behold the Lord High Executioner!; As some day it may happen; Three little maids; So please you, Sir; For he's going to marry Yum-Yum; The sun, whose rays; Brightly dawns our wedding day; Here's a how-do-do; Miya sama; A more humane Mikado; The flowers that bloom in the spring; Alone, and yet alive!; On a tree by a river (Titwillow); There is beauty in the bellow of the blast. RUDDIGORE, OR, THE WITCH'S CURSE: If somebody there chanced to be; I shipped, d'ye see (and Hornpipe); My boy, you may take it from me; Cheerily carols the lark over the cot; When the night wind howls; I once was a very abandoned person; My eyes are fully open. THE YEOMEN OF THE GUARD, OR, THE MERRYMAN AND HIS MAID: When maiden loves; If life a boon?; I have a song to sing, O!; I've jibe and joke; Were I thy bride; Oh! a private buffoon; Strange adventure!; A man who would woo a fair maid; When a wooer Goes a-wooing. THE GONDOLIERS, OR, THE KING OF BARATARIA: We're called 'gondolieri'; In enterprise of martial kind; I stole the Prince; When a merry maiden marries; Then one of us will be a Queen; Take a pair of sparkling eyes; Dance a cachucha; There lived a King; I am a courtier grave and serious. UTOPIA LIMITED, OR, THE FLOWER OF PROGRESS: In ev'ry mental lore; Society has quite forsaken all her wicked courses. THE GRAND DUKE, OR, THE STATUTORY DUEL: So ends my dream.
