PIRATES OF PENZANCE

"When the Foeman Bares His Steel"
Ah, when the foeman bares his steel,
Tarantara, tarantara!

We uncomfortable feel,

Tarantara, tarantara!

And we find the wisest thing,
Tarantara, tarantara!

Is to slap our chests and sing,
Tarantara!

For when threatened with emeutes,
Tarantara, tarantara!

And our heart is in our boots,
Tarantara, tarantara!

There is nothing brings it round
Like the trumpet's martial sound,
Like the trumpet's martial sound,
Like the trumpet's martial sound,
Tarantara, tarantara!

Ra! ra! ra! ra! ra! etc.

PIRATES OF PENZANCE

"Poor Wandering One"

Poor wand'ring one! Tho' thou hast surely strayed,
Take heart of grace, thy steps retrace,

Poor wand'ring one! Poor wand'ring one!

If such poor love as mine

Can help thee find

True peace of mind-why, take it!

It is thine.

Take heart, no danger lowers.

Take any heart take ours.

Take heart, fair days will shine;

Take any heart-take mine!

Poor wand'ring one! Tho' thou hast surely strayed,

Take heart of grace,

Thy steps retrace,

Poor wand'ring one,

Ah!

Take heart!

Take mine!

Ah! Take heart! Take mine!

PIRATES OF PENZANCE

"Oh Is There Not One Maiden Breast" Oh, is there not one maiden breast

Which does not feel the moral beauty Of making worldly interest

Subordinate to sense of duty?

Who would not give up willingly

All matrimonial ambition

To rescue such an one as I

From his unfortunate position?

From this position,

To rescue such an one as I

From his unfortunate position?

ROCK OF AGES
Hastings

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee,
Let the water and the blood,

From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure,

Save from wrath and make me pure.

Could my tears forever flow,
Could my zeal no languor know,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save and Thou alone.
In my hand no price I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling.

Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling,
Naked, come to Thee for dress,
Helpless, look to Thee for grace,
Foul I to the fountain fly,
Wash me, Saviour, or I die.

While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyelids close in death,
When I rise to worlds unknown,
And behold Thee on Thy throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.

NURSERY RHYMES

Little Miss Muffet

Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet,
Eating some curds and whey;
There came a great spider
And sat down beside her,

And frightened Miss Muffet away.
Little Bo-Peep

Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep
And can't tell where to find them;
Leave them alone and they'll come home
Wagging their tails behind them.

Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep,

And dreampt she heard them bleating;
When she awoke 'twas all a joke,
Ah, cruel vision so fleeting.

Then up she took her little crook,
Determined for to find them;
What was her joy to behold them nigh
Wagging their tails behind them.

NURSERY RHYMES NO. 2

Baa! Baa! Black Sheep
Baa! Baa! Black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes, sir; yes, sir;

Three backs full:

One for my master,

One for my dame,

But none for the naughty boy
That cried in the lane.

Baby Bunting

Bye Baby Bunting,

Daddy's gone a-hunting,
To get a little rabbit skin,
To wrap his Baby Bunting in.

Mary, Mary

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?

With silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty girls all in a row.

NURSERY RHYMES-Continued

Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,

And all the king's horses and all the king's men,
Couldn't put Humpty Dumpty together again.

To Market

To market, to market,
To buy a fat pig.
Home again, home again,
Jig, jig, jig.

To market, to market,
To buy a fat hog.
Home again, home again,
Jig, pig, jog.

Crooked Man

There was a crooked man

And he walked a crooked mile,
And he found a crooked sixpence,
Against a crooked stile.

He bought a crooked cat,

Who caught a crooked mouse,

And they all lived together

In a crooked little house.

Tommy Tucker

Little Tommy Tucker
Sings for his supper.

What shall he eat?

Some nice bread and butter.

How can he eat

Without any knife?

And how can he marry

Without any wife?

NURSERY RHYMES-Continued

Sing a Song of Sixpence

Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie.

When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing-
Now wasn't that a dainty dish
To set before a king.

Little Pussy

I love little pussy,

Her coat is so warm,
And if I don't hurt her,
She'll do me no harm.
I'll sit by the fire,

And give her some food,
And pussy will love me
Because I am good.

Georgie Porgie

Georgie Porgie, puddin' and pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry.
When the girls came out to play
Georgie Porgie ran away.

Pussy Cat, Pussy Cat

Pussy cat, pussy cat,

Where have you been?

I've been to London to visit the Queen.

Pussy cat, pussy cat,

What did you there?

I saw a little mouse under her chair.
