[Sir George:] Although I am a man of law,
Of many years in practice spent,
I never heard and never saw
The equal of this strange event.
But still I think you'll quickly see,
If you will leave the case to me.
[Count:] We'll proceed to search for Ada,
[Hooley:] If she is above the ground.
[Colonel:] Though her parents have mislaid her,
[Sir George:] She must instantly be found.
[All:] We'll proceed to search for Ada,
If she is above the ground.
Though her parents have mislaid her,
She must instantly be found.

[Colonel:] This really is most serious,
Surpassing ordinary bounds,
Our duty is imperious,
Just think of it- four million pounds!
A happy plan I have in view,
Which later on I'll tell to you.
[Hooley:] We'll proceed to search for Ada,
[Sir George:] This surpasses common bounds,
[Count:] For the parents have mislaid her,
[Colonel:] Fortune of four million pounds!
[All:] We'll proceed to search for Ada,
This surpasses common bounds,
For the parents have mislaid her,
Fortune of four million pounds!

[Count:] My duty to her parent late,
He was a character sublime,
Considering the large estate
Impresses me to lose no time.
To seek a clue at once I go,
And what I learn I'll let you know
We'll proceed to search for Ada,
If she is above the ground.
Though her parents have mislaid her,
She must instantly be found.
[All:] We'll proceed to search for Ada,
If she is above the ground.
Though her parents have mislaid her,
She must instantly be found.
