RALPH: Farewell, my own,
Light of my life, farewell!
For crime unknown
I go to a dungeon cell.
JOS.: I will atone.
In the meantime farewell!
And all alone
Rejoice in your dungeon cell!
SIR J.: A bone, a bone
I'll pick with this sailor fell;
Let him be shown
At once to his dungeon cell.
BOAT., DICK, CARP., & HEBE: He'll hear no tone
Of the maiden he loves so well!
No telephone
Communicates with his cell!
BUT.: But when is known
The secret I have to tell,
Wide will be thrown
The door of his dungeon cell.
RALPH: Farewell, my own,
Light of my life, farewell!
For crime unknown
I go to a dungeon,
A dungeon cell.
