[FREDERIC]
Stay, we must not lose our senses;
Men who stick at no offenses
Will anon be here!
Piracy their dreadful trade is;
Pray you, get you hence, young ladies,
While the coast is clear!
[GIRLS]
No, we must not lose our senses,
If they stick at no offenses
We should not be here!
Piracy their dreadful trade is -
Nice companions for young ladies!
Let us disappear. [GIRLS]
Too late!
Too late!
[PIRATES]
Ha, ha!
Ho, ho!
Ha, ha, ha, ha! Ho, ho, ho, ho! [PIRATES]
Here's a first rate opportunity
To get married with impunity,
And indulge in the felicity
Of unbounded domesticity!
You shall quickly be parsonified,
Conjugally matrimonified,
By a doctor of divinity,
Who is located in this vicinity.
[GIRLS]
We have missed our opportunity
Of escaping with impunity,
So farewell to the felicity
Of our maiden domesticity!
We shall quickly be parsonified,
Conjugally matrimonified,
By a doctor of divinity,
Who is located in this vicinity.
[PIRATES AND GIRLS]
By a doctor of divinity,
Who resides in this vicinity,
By a doctor, a doctor, a doctor of divinity, of divinity.
