(Marching to “Oh, Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms,” and doing a hop, skip and jump as they near the Musnud.)
The universe is moral! The universe is moral!
’Tis as true—’tis as true—
As that a green horse isn’t sorrel!
(One-half the division stand on their heads, the others on their feet.)
THE FIFTY DIZZARDS
(Receiving souffle handed up by the Nizys below. In chorus.)
“The universe is moral! The universe is moral!
’Tis as true—’tis as true—
As that a green horse isn’t sorrel!”
THE ELEVEN THOUSAND PHILOSOPHERS AND ASTRONOMERS
(In chorus)
Hail! Hail! The Comet’s Tail!
All is well! All is swell!
Never was there an age like this!
(They wave their feet or hands, as the case may be.)
