[Duke] After much debate internal,
I on Lady Jane decide,
Saphir now may take the Colonel,
Angy be the Major's bride!

[Bunthorne] In that case unprecedented,
Single I must live and die;
I shall have to be contented
With a tulip or lily!

[Principals] He will have to be contented
With a tulip or lily!

[All] In that case unprecedented,
Single he must live and die;
He willl have to be contented
With a tulip or lily!

Greatly pleased with one another,
To get married we decide.
Each of us will wed the other,
Nobody be Bunthorne's Bride!
