[Cassandra:] Now, Columbine, the magic cloak produce,
This mystic robe I'm dying for to see!
(Aside) Although, alas, it's very little use,
For it will be invisible to me.
For, oh, I am such a terrible rake,
For every girl my heart does ache;
Of wicked old men I am the pink,
I flirt, I ogle, I leer, I wink.
[Nicolette:] Come, let the cloak instanter be displayed,
Its gorgeous beauties please at once unfold!
(Aside) Alas, alas, I'm very much afraid
That magic cloak I never can behold.
For, oh, I am such a wicked old maid,
Whatever its age, whatever its grade,
On every heart at once I seize,
I giggle, I flutter, I flirt, I tease.
[Clochette:] But, Uncle, I admit with terror
That I have made a serious error.
I've made the very greatest of mistakes;
I said 'twas visible to lovers true-
It's only visible to flirts and rakes,
And therefore won't be visible to you.
And therefore won't be visible to you.
[Nicolette:] Why, what d'ye mean, the truth, come quickly tell.
[Clochette:] To all true lovers it's invisible!
[Nic. & Cass.:] Then alas, alas, it can never be
Visible unto you or me.
For I am a lover, a lover true,
It cannot be seen by me or you.
[Nicolette (aside):] This is as right as right can be,
[Cassandra:] This magical cloak I'm sure to see.
[Nicolette:] This magical cloak I'm sure to see.
[Ensemble:] For, oh, he ia such a terrible rake,
For every girl his heart doth ache;
Of wicked old men he is the pink,
To flirt, to ogle, to leer, to wink.
For, oh, she is such a wicked old maid,
Whatever its age, whatever its grade,
On every heart at once does seize,
On every heart at once does seize,
To giggle, to flutter, to flirt and tease,
To giggle, to flutter, to flirt and tease.
