Jury are sworn in - One Man Opera - Trial by Jury
One man sings 'Swear thou the Jury!' and 'Where is the Plaintiff?' from Gilbert and Sullivan's opera 'Trial by Jury'.
Lyrics:
COUNSEL.
Swear thou the Jury!
USHER.
Kneel, Jurymen, oh, kneel!
USHER.
Oh, will you swear by yonder skies,
Whatever question may arise,
’Twixt rich and poor, ’twixt low and high,
That you will well and truly try?
JURY.
To all of this we make reply,
To all of this we make reply,
By the dull slate of yonder sky:
That we will well and truly try.
Defendant, Counsel, Judge, Usher.
They will well and truly try!
Jury.
We’ll try!
COUNSEL.
Where is the Plaintiff?
Let her now be brought.
USHER.
Oh, Angelina! Come thou into Court!
Angelina! Angelina!!
CHORUS OF BRIDESMAIDS.
Comes the broken flower –
Comes the cheated maid –
Though the tempest lower,
Rain and cloud will fade!
Take, O maid, these posies:
Though thy beauty rare
Shame the blushing roses,
They are passing fair!
Wear the flowers till they fade;
Happy be thy life, oh maid!
PLAINTIFF.
O’er the season vernal,
Time may cast a shade;
Sunshine, if eternal,
Makes the roses fade!
Time may do his duty;
Let the thief alone –
Winter hath a beauty,
That is all his own.
Fairest days are sun and shade:
I am no unhappy maid!
