I shall stand the expense at all.

Chorus.

But, notwithstanding his misgivings, the Burglar takes the eight sisters to his palatial home and installs them there; whereupon his remonstrances with them for their great extravagance calls forth this musical gem:

THE BURGLE SONG

The Burglar blows about the clothes

And costly jewels the girls are getting;

He swears and scowls and groans and growls,

His previous contract sore regretting.

Blow, Burglar, blow!

Send the wild sisters flying.
