That love and matrimony can combine!
Miss Skylark (singing).
Then “Life let us cherish while yet the taper glows;”
Damper.
Pray stop that lady—let me have repose
To point a moral. (Advancing to the audience.) Ah! I see you two;
Young man desist, you know not what you do;
Take my advice, retract in time, forbear—
You’re making love to that young woman there!
