Michel.
The joy of my heart.
Lustucru (aside).
I'll have my revenge yet.
[Repeat together the first two verses.]
[Curtain falls on Act II.]
ACT III.
Scene.—Lustucru's room. Curtains at back, parting in centre. Table in back, on which is a large plate and spoon. Music—Conspirators' chorus from "La Fille de Madame Augot." Enter to the introduction, slowly, Lustucru and Apothecary, attired in mysterious black cowls.
Duo.—Lustucru and Apothecary.
Tune—"Conspirators' chorus." La Fille de Madame Augot.
When one's conspiring he must not fear
To put to death his foes so drear.
Then this little hash we will gently mix,
And put an end to Moumouth's little tricks.
Hush! ah, hush! lest Michel hear.
Hark! ah, hark! Doth a step draw near?
Then softly tread, then softly tread,
And we will gently mix
A sweet little hash, a sweet little hash,
And put an end to Moumouth's little tricks.
Then boldly rouse, and lead the way!
Then boldly rouse, and lead the way!
Oh!
