SONG.--SERGEANT.
When the foeman bares his steel,
Tarantara! tarantara!
We uncomfortable feel,
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 your heart is in your boots,
Tarantara!
There is nothing brings it round,
Tarantara! tarantara!
Like the trumpet’s martial sound.
Tarantara!
Tarantara, ra-ra-ra-ra!
_All._ Tarantara, ra-ra-ra-ra!
_Mab._ Go, ye heroes, go to glory;
Though you die in combat gory
Ye shall live in song and story.
Go to immortality.
Go to death, and go to slaughter;
Die, and every Cornish daughter
With her tears your grave shall water.
Go, ye heroes; go and die.
_All._ Go, ye heroes; go and die.
_Pol._ Though to us it’s evident,
Tarantara! tarantara!
These attentions are well meant,
Tarantara!
Such expressions don’t appear,
Tarantara! tarantara!
Calculated men to cheer,
Tarantara!
Who are going to meet their fate
In a highly nervous state,
Tarantara!
Still to us it’s evident
These attentions are well meant.
Tarantara!
_Edith._ Go and do your best endeavour,
And before all links we sever
We will say farewell for ever;
Go to glory and the grave.
For your foes are fierce and ruthless,
False, unmerciful, and truthless.
Young and tender, old and toothless,
All in vain their mercy crave.
_All._ Yes, your foes are fierce and ruthless, etc.
_Serg._ We observe too great a stress
On the risks that on us press,
And of reference a lack
To our chance of coming back.
Still perhaps it would be wise
Not to carp or criticise,
For it’s very evident
These attentions are well meant.
_All._ Yes, to them it’s evident
Our attentions are well meant.
Tarantara, ra-ra-ra-ra!
Go, ye heroes, go to glory, etc.
_Gen._ Away, away.
_Pol._ (_without moving_).
Yes, yes, we go.
_Gen._ These pirates slay.
_Pol._ Yes, yes, we go.
_Gen._ Then do not stay.
_Pol._ We go, we go.
_Gen._ Then why all this delay?
_Pol._ All right--we go, we go.
Yes, forward on the foe,
Ho, ho! Ho, ho!
We go, we go, we go!
Tarantara-ra-ra!
Then forward on the foe!
_All._ Yes, forward!
_Pol._ Yes, forward!
_Gen._ Yes, but you don’t go!
_Pol._ We go, we go, we go!
_All._ At last they really go--Tarantara-ra-ra!
ENSEMBLE.
CHORUS OF ALL BUT POLICE. CHORUS OF POLICE.
Go and do your best endeavour, Such expressions don’t appear,
And before all links we sever Tarantara! tarantara!
We will say farewell for ever; Calculated men to cheer,
Go to glory and the grave. Tarantara!
For your foes are fierce and Who are going to their fate,
ruthless, Tarantara! tarantara!
False, unmerciful and truthless. In a highly nervous state.
Young and tender, old and Tarantara!
toothless, We observe too great a stress,
All in vain their mercy crave. Tarantara! tarantara!
On the risks that on us press,
Tarantara!
And of reference a lack,
Tarantara! tarantara!
To our chance of coming back.
Tarantara!
[_MABEL tears herself from FREDERIC and exit, followed by her
sisters, consoling her. The GENERAL and others follow the
_Police_ off. FREDERIC remains._
RECITATIVE.--FREDERIC.
Now for the pirate’s lair! Oh, joy unbounded!
Oh, sweet relief! Oh, rapture unexampled!
At last I may atone, in some slight measure,
For the repeated acts of theft and pillage
Which, at a sense of duty’s stern dictation,
I, circumstance’s victim, have been guilty.
[_The PIRATE KING and RUTH appear at the window armed._
_King._ Young Frederic! (_Covering him with pistol._)
_Fred._ Who calls?
_King._ Your late commander! (_Coming down._)
_Ruth._ And I, your little Ruth! (_Covering him with pistol._)
_Fred._ Oh, mad intruders,
How dare ye face me? Know ye not, oh rash ones,
That I have doomed you to extermination?
[_KING and RUTH hold a pistol to each ear._
_King._ Have mercy on us, hear us, ere you slaughter.
_Fred._ I do not think I ought to listen to you.
Yet, mercy should alloy our stern resentment,
And so I will be merciful--say on.
TRIO.--RUTH, KING, AND FRED.
When first you left our pirate fold
We tried to cheer our spirits faint,
According to our customs old,
With quips and quibbles quaint.
But all in vain the quips we heard,
We lay and sobbed upon the rocks,
Until to somebody occurred
A curious paradox.
_Fred._ A paradox!
_King_ (_laughing_). A paradox.
_Ruth._ A most ingenious paradox.
We’ve quips and quibbles heard in flocks,
But none to beat this paradox!
Ha! ha! ha! ha! ho! ho! ho! ho!
_King._ We knew your taste for curious quips,
For cranks and contradictions queer,
And with the laughter on our lips,
We wished you had been there to hear.
We said, “If we could tell it him,
How Frederic would the joke enjoy,”
And so we’ve risked both life and limb
To tell it to our boy.
_Fred._ (_interested_).
That paradox? That paradox!
_King and Ruth_ (_laughing_).
That most ingenious paradox!
We’ve quips and quibbles heard in flocks,
But none to beat that paradox!
Ha, ha, ha, ha! ho, ho, ho, ho!
CHANT.--KING.
For some ridiculous reason, to which, however, I’ve no
desire to be disloyal,
Some person in authority, I don’t know who--very likely the
Astronomer Royal--
Has decided that, although for such a beastly month as
February twenty-eight days as a general rule are plenty,
One year in every four his days shall be reckoned as nine
and twenty.
Through some singular coincidence--I shouldn’t be surprised
if it were owing to the agency of an ill-natured fairy--
You are the victim of this clumsy arrangement, having been
born in leap year, on the twenty-ninth of February,
And so, by a simple arithmetical process, you’ll easily
discover,
That though you’ve lived twenty-one years, yet, if we go by
birthdays, you’re only five and a little bit over!
_Ruth._ Ha! ha! ha! ha!
_King._ Ho! ho! ho! ho!
_Fred._ Dear me!
Let’s see! (_Counting on fingers._)
Yes, yes; with yours my figures do agree!
_All._ Ha, ha, ha, ha! Ho, ho, ho, ho! (_FREDERIC more amused than
any._)
_Fred._ How quaint the ways of paradox!
At common sense she gaily mocks!
Though counting in the usual way,
Years twenty-one I’ve been alive,
Yet, reckoning by my natal day,
I am a little boy of five!
_All._ He is a little boy of five. Ha, ha!
At common sense she gaily mocks;
So quaint a way is paradox.
_All._ Ha, ha, ha, ha!
_King._ Ho, ho, ho, ho!
_Ruth._ Ha, ha, ha, ha!
_Fred._ Ha, ha, ha, ha!
_All._ Ho, ho, ho, ho!
[_RUTH and KING throw themselves back on seats, exhausted with
laughter._]
_Fred._ Upon my word, this is most curious--most absurdly whimsical.
Five and a quarter! No one would think it to look at me.
_Ruth._ You are glad now, I’ll be bound, that you spared us. You would
never have forgiven yourself when you discovered that you had killed
_two of your comrades_.
_Fred._ My comrades?
_King._ I’m afraid you don’t appreciate the delicacy of your position.
You were apprenticed to us----
_Fred._ Until I reached my twenty-first year.
_King._ No, until you reached your twenty-first _birthday_ (_producing
document_), and, going by birthdays, you are as yet only five and a
quarter.
_Fred._ You don’t mean to say you are going to hold me to that?
_King._ No, we merely remind you of the fact, and leave the rest to
your sense of duty.
_Fred._ (_wildly_). Don’t put it on that footing! As I was merciful to
you just now, be merciful to me! I implore you not to insist on the
letter of your bond just as the cup of happiness is at my lips!
_Ruth._ We insist on nothing; we content ourselves with pointing out to
you _your duty_.
_Fred._ (_after a pause_). Well, you have appealed to my sense of duty,
and my duty is only too clear. I abhor your infamous calling; I shudder
at the thought that I have ever been mixed up with it; but duty is
before all--at any price I will do my duty!
_King._ Bravely spoken. Come, you are one of us once more.
_Fred._ Lead on; I follow. (_Suddenly._) Oh, horror!
_King and Ruth._ What is the matter?
_Fred._ Ought I to tell you? No, no, I cannot do it; and yet, as one of
your band----
_King._ Speak out, I charge you, by that sense of conscientiousness to
which we have never yet appealed in vain.
_Fred._ General Stanley, the father of my Mabel----
_King and Ruth._ Yes, yes!
_Fred._ He escaped from you on the plea that he was an orphan?
_King._ He did.
_Fred._ It breaks my heart to betray the honoured father of the girl I
adore, but, as your apprentice, I have no alternative. It is my duty to
tell you that General Stanley is no orphan.
_King and Ruth._ What!
_Fred._ More than that, he never was one!
_King._ Am I to understand that, to save his contemptible life, he
dared to practise on our credulous simplicity? (_FREDERIC nods as
he weeps._) Our revenge shall be swift and terrible. We will go and
collect our band and attack Tremorden Castle this very night.
_Fred._ But----
_King._ Not a word. He is doomed. (_Goes up and down stage._)
TRIO.
KING AND RUTH. FREDERIC.
Away, away, my heart’s on Away, away, ere I expire--
fire,
I burn this base deception to I find my duty hard to do
repay, to-day!
This very day my vengeance dire My heart is filled with anguish
dire,
Shall glut itself in gore. It strikes me to the core.
Away, away! Away, away!
_King._ With falsehood foul
He tricked us of our brides.
Let vengeance howl;
The pirate so decides.
Our nature stem
He softened with his lies,
And, in return,
To-night the traitor dies.
_All._ Yes, yes; to-night the traitor dies.
_Ruth_ (_crosses to FREDERIC_). To-night he dies.
_King._ Yes, or early to-morrow.
_Fred._ His girls likewise?
_Ruth._ They will welter in sorrow.
_King._ The one soft spot----
_Fred._ In their natures they cherish,
And all who plot----
_Ruth._ To abuse it shall perish!
_All._ Yes, all who plot
_King._ To abuse it shall perish!
Away, away, etc.
[_Exeunt KING and RUTH. FREDERIC throws himself on a stone in
blank despair._
_Enter MABEL._
RECITATIVE.--MABEL.
All is prepared, your gallant crew await you.
My Frederick in tears? It cannot be
That lion-heart quails at the coming conflict?
_Fred._ No, Mabel, no. A terrible disclosure
Has just been made! Mabel, my dearly loved one,
I bound myself to serve the pirate captain
Until I reached my one and twentieth birthday----
_Mab._ But you are twenty-one?
_Fred._ I’ve just discovered
That I was born in leap year, and that birthday
Will not be reached by me till 1940.
_Mab._ Oh, horrible! catastrophe appalling!
_Fred._ And so, farewell!
_Mab._ No, no! Oh, Frederic, hear me.
DUET.--MABEL AND FREDERIC.
_Mab._ Stay, Frederic, stay!
They have no legal claim;
No shadow of a shame
Will fall upon thy name.
Stay, Frederic, stay!
_Fred._ Nay, Mabel, nay,
To-night I quit these walls,
The thought my soul appals,
But when stem duty calls,
I must obey.
_Mab._ Stay, Frederic, stay----
_Fred._ Nay, Mabel, nay----
_Mab._ They have no claim----
_Fred._ But duty’s name!
The thought my soul appals,
But when stern duty calls,
I must obey.
BALLAD.--MABEL (_kneels_).
Oh, leave me not to pine
Alone and desolate;
No fate seemed fair as mine,
No happiness so great.
And nature, day by day,
Has sung, in accents clear,
This joyous roundelay,
“He loves thee--he is here.
Fal-la, fa-la, fa-la.”
_Fred._ Ah, must I leave thee here
In endless night to dream,
Where joy is dark and drear,
And sorrow all supreme!
Where nature, day by day,
Will sing, in altered tone,
This weary roundelay,
“He loves thee--he is gone.
Fa-la, fa-la, fa-la.”
He loves thee, he is gone. (_Rises._)
_Fred._ In 1940 I of age shall be.
I’ll then return, and claim you--I declare it.
_Mab._ It seems so long!
_Fred._ Swear that, till then, you will be true to me.
_Mab._ Yes, I’ll be strong!
By all the Stanleys dead and gone,
I swear it!
ENSEMBLE.
Oh, here is love, and here is truth,
And here is food for joyous laughter.
He} {his}
She} will be faithful to {her} sooth
Till we are wed, and even after.
{he}
What joy to know that though; {I} must
Embrace piratical adventures,
He} {his}
She} will be faithful to {her} trust
{he is} {his}
Till {I am} out of {my} Ventures.
_Fred._ Farewell! Adieu!
_Both._ Farewell! Adieu!
[_FREDERIC rushes to window and leaps out._
_Mab._ (_feeling pulse_).
Yes, I am brave! Oh, family descent,
How great thy charm, thy sway how excellent!
Come, one and all, undaunted men in blue;
A crisis, now, affairs are coming to.
_Enter _Police_, marching in single file._
_Serg._ Though in body and in mind,
Tarantara! tarantara!
We are timidly inclined,
Tarantara!
And anything but blind,
Tarantara! tarantara!
To the danger that’s behind,
Tarantara!
Yet, when the danger’s near,
Tarantara! tarantara!
We manage to appear
Tarantara!
As insensible to fear
As anybody here.
Tarantara!
Tarantara! tarantara, ra-ra-ra-ra!
_Mab._ Sergeant, approach. Young Frederic was to have led you to death
and glory.
_All._ That is not a pleasant way of putting it.
_Mab._ No matter; he will not so lead you, for he has allied himself
once more with his old associates.
_All._ He has acted shamefully.
_Mab._ You speak falsely. You know nothing about it. He has acted nobly.
_All._ He has acted nobly.
_Mab._ Dearly as I loved him before, his heroic sacrifice to his sense
of duty has endeared him to me tenfold. He has done his duty. I will do
mine. Go ye, and do yours. [_Exit MABEL._
_All._ Very well.
_Serg._ This is perplexing.
_All._ We cannot understand it at all.
_Serg._ Still he is actuated by a sense of duty----
_All._ That makes a difference, of course. At the same time we repeat,
we cannot understand it at all.
_Serg._ No matter; our course is clear. We must do our best to capture
these pirates alone. It is most distressing to us to be the agents
whereby our erring fellow-creatures are deprived of that liberty which
is so dear to all--but we should have thought of that before we joined
the force.
_All._ We should.
_Serg._ It is too late now!
_All._ It is.
SONG.--SERGEANT.
When a felon’s not engaged in his employment--
_All._ His employment,
_Serg._ Or maturing his felonious little plans--
_All._ Little plans,
_Serg._ His capacity for innocent enjoyment--
_All._ ’Cent enjoyment,
_Serg._ Is just as great as any honest man’s--
_All._ Honest man’s.
_Serg._ Our feelings we with difficulty smother--
_All._ ’Culty smother,
_Serg._ When constabulary duty’s to be done--
_All._ To be done,
_Serg._ Ah, take one consideration with another--
_All._ With another,
_Serg._ A policeman’s lot is not a happy one.
_All._ When constabulary duty’s to be done,
The policeman’s lot is not a happy one.
_Serg._ When the enterprising burglar’s not a-burgling--
_All._ Not a-burgling,
_Serg._ When the cut-throat isn’t occupied in crime--
_All._ ’Pied in crime,
_Serg._ He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling--
_All._ Brook a-gurgling,
_Serg._ And listen to the merry village chime--
_All._ Village chime.
_Serg._ When the coster’s finished jumping on his mother--
_All._ On his mother,
_Serg._ He loves to lie a-basking in the sun--
_All._ In the sun.
_Serg._ Ah, take one consideration with another--
_All._ With another,
_Serg._ The policeman’s lot is not a happy one.
When constabulary duty’s to be done--
_All._ To be done,
_Serg._ The policeman’s lot is not a happy one--
_All._ Happy one.
CHORUS OF PIRATES (_without, in the distance_).
A rollicking band of pirates we,
Who, tired of tossing on the sea,
Are trying their hands in a burglaree,
With weapons grim and gory.
_Serg._ Hush, hush! I hear them on the manor poaching;
With stealthy step the pirates are approaching.
CHORUS OF PIRATES (_resumed nearer_).
We are not coming for plate of gold--
A story General Stanley’s told--
We seek a penalty fifty-fold
For General Stanley’s story.
_Pol._ They seek a penalty--
_Pir._ (_without_). Fifty-fold;
We seek a penalty--
_Pol._ Fifty-fold;
_All._ {We}
{They} seek a Penalty fifty-fold
For General Stanley’s story.
_Pol._ They come in force, with stealthy stride,
Our obvious course is now--to hide.
[__Police_ conceal themselves in aisle. As they do so, the
_Pirates_, with RUTH and FREDERIC, are seen appearing at ruined
window. They enter cautiously. SAMUEL is laden with burglarious
tools and pistols, etc._
CHORUS.--PIRATES (_very loud_).
With cat-like tread,
Upon our prey we steal;
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel.
_Pol._ (_pianissimo_). Tarantara! tarantara!
_Pir._ No sound at all,
We never speak a word,
A fly’s foot-fall
Could be distinctly heard--
_Pol._ Tarantara! tarantara!
_Pir._ Ha! ha!
Ho! ho!
So stealthily the pirate creeps
While all the household soundly sleeps.
Ha! ha! ho! ho!
_Pol._ (_pianissimo_). Tarantara! tarantara!
(_Forte._) Tarantara!
_Sam._ (_distributing implements to various members of the gang_).
Here’s your crowbar and your centrebit,
Your life preserver--you may want to hit;
Your silent matches, your dark lantern seize,
Take your file and your skeletonic keys.
_All_ (_fortissimo_). With cat-like tread, etc.
RECITATIVE.
_Fred._ Hush, not a word. I see a light inside.
The Major-General comes, so quickly hide.
_Gen._ (_without_).
Yes, yes, the Major-General comes.
_Pir._ He comes.
_Gen._ (_entering in dressing-gown, carrying a light_).
Yes, yes, I come.
_Pol._ He comes.
_Gen._ Yes, yes, I come.
_All._ The Major-General comes. [_Exit FREDERIC._
SOLO.--GENERAL.
Tormented with the anguish dread
Of falsehood unatoned,
I lay upon my sleepless bed,
And tossed and turned and groaned.
The man who finds his conscience ache
No peace at all enjoys,
And as I lay in bed awake
I thought I heard a noise.
_Pir._ He thought he heard a noise--ha! ha!
_Pol._ He thought he heard a noise--ha! ha! (_Very loud._)
_Gen._ No, all is still
In dale, on hill;
My mind is set at ease.
So still the scene--
It must have been
The sighing of the breeze.
BALLAD.--GENERAL.
Sighing softly to the river
Comes the loving breeze,
Setting nature all a-quiver,
Rustling through the trees--
_All._ Through the trees.
_Gen._ And the brook in rippling measure
Laughs for very love,
While the poplars, in their pleasure,
Wave their arms above. (_Goes up stage and returns._)
_Pol. and Pir._
Yes, the trees, for very love,
Wave their leafy arms above,
River, river, little river,
May thy loving prosper ever.
Heaven speed thee, poplar tree;
May thy wooing happy be.
_Gen._ Yet, the breeze is but a rover;
When he wings away,
Brook and poplar mourn a lover!
Sighing well-a-day!
_All._ Well-a-day!
_Gen._ Ah, the doing and undoing
That the rogue could tell!
When the breeze is out a-wooing,
Who can woo so well?
_Pol. and Pir._
Shocking tales the rogue could tell,
Nobody can woo so well.
Pretty brook, thy dream is over,
For thy love is but a rover
Sad the lot of poplar trees
Courted by the fickle breeze.
_Enter the GENERAL’S daughters, all in white peignoirs and
nightcaps, and carrying lighted candles._
_Girls._
Now, what is this, and what is that, and why does father
leave his rest
At such a time as this, so very incompletely dressed?
Dear father is, and always was, the most methodical of men;
It’s his invariable rule to go to bed at half-past ten.
What strange occurrence can it be that calls dear father
from his rest
At such a time of night as this, so very incompletely
dressed?
_King_ (_springing up_).
Forward, my men, and seize that General there!
[_They seize the GENERAL._
_Pir._ Ha! ha! we are the pirates, so despair--
_King._ With base deceit
You worked upon our feelings
Revenge is sweet,
And flavours all our dealings.
With courage rare
And resolution manly,
For death prepare,
Unhappy General Stanley!
_Fred._ (_coming forward_).
Alas, alas, unhappy General Stanley!
_Gen._ Frederic here! Oh, joy! Oh, rapture!
Summon your men and effect their capture.
_Mab._ Frederic, save us!
_Fred._ Beautiful Mabel,
I would if I could, but I am not able.
_Pir._ He’s telling the truth, he is not able.
_Pol._ (_pianissimo_). Tarantara! tarantara.
_Mab._ (_wildly_).
Is he to die, unshriven-unannealed?
_Girls._ Oh, spare him!
_Mab._ Will no one in his cause a weapon wield?
_Girls._ Oh, spare him!
_Pol._ (_springing up_).
Yes, we are here, though hitherto concealed!
_Girls._ Oh, rapture!
_Pol._ So to our prowess, pirates, quickly yield!
_Girls._ Oh, rapture!
[_A struggle ensues between _Pirates_ and _Police_. Eventually
the _Police_ are overcome, and fall prostrate, the _Pirates_
standing over them with drawn swords. _Ladies_ run down._
CHORUS OF POLICE AND PIRATES.
You}
We} triumph now, for well we trow
Our mortal career’s cut short,
No pirate band will take its stand
At the Central Criminal Court.
_Serg._ To gain a brief advantage you’ve contrived,
But your proud triumph will not be long-lived.
_King._ Don’t say you are orphans, for we know that game.
_Serg._ On your allegiance we’ve a nobler claim.
We charge you yield, in Queen Victoria’s name!
_King_ (_baffled_). You do!
_Pol._ We do;
We charge you yield, in Queen Victoria’s name!
[__Pirates_ kneel, _Police_ stand over them triumphantly._
_King._ We yield at once, with humbled mien,
Because, with all our faults, we love our Queen,
_Pol._ Yes, yes; with all their faults, they love their Queen.
_Ladies._
Yes, yes; with all, etc.
[__Police_, holding _Pirates_ by the collar, take out handkerchiefs
and weep._
_RUTH enters._
_Gen._ Away with them, and place them at the bar.
_Ruth._ One moment; let me tell you who they are.
They are no members of the common throng;
They are all noblemen, who have gone wrong!
_Gen., Pol., and Girls._ What, _all_ noblemen?
_King and Pir._ Yes, all noblemen!
_Gen., Pol., and Girls._ What, _all_?
_King._ Well, nearly all!
_Gen._ No Englishmen unmoved that statement hears,
Because, with all our faults, we love our House of Peers.
[_All kneel to _Pirates_._
RECITATIVE.--GENERAL.
I pray you, pardon me, ex-Pirate King,
Peers will be peers, and youth will have its fling.
Resume your ranks and legislative duties,
And take my daughters, all of whom are beauties.
FINALE.
_Mab._ Poor wandering ones,
Though ye have surely strayed,
Take heart of grace,
Your steps retrace,
Poor wandering ones!
Poor wandering ones,
If such poor love as ours
Can help you find
True peace of mind,
Why, take it, it is yours!
_All._ Poor wandering ones, etc.
