What Are the Wild Waves Saying?
Words by J.E. Carpenter.
Stephen Glover.
This duet was founded upon the question little Paul Dombey asks his sister:
I want to know what it says—the sea, Floy, what is it that it keeps on saying?
When He Who Adores Thee (O.C.S. 35)
Words by Moore.
In Irish Melodies to the air ‘The Fox's Sleep.’
When I Went to Lunnon Town, Sirs (G.E. 15)
Probably original. The nearest I have found to it is—
The Astonished Countryman, or, a Bustling Picture of London.
When first I came to London Town,
How great was my surprise,
Thought I, the world's turned upside down,
Such wonders met my eyes.
And in The Universal Songster—
When I arrived in London Town,
I got my lesson pat, &c.
