Thenardier
     What to do?  What to say?
     Shall you carry our treasure away?
     What a gem!  What a pearl!
     Beyond rubies is our little girl!
     How can we speak of debt?
     Let's not haggle for darling Cosette!
     Dear Fantine, gone to rest
     Have we done for her child what is best?
     Shared our bread, shared each bone
     Treated her like she's one of our own!
     Like our own, Monsieur!
Valjean
     Your feelings do you credit, sir
     And I will ease the parting blow
     [He pays them.]
     Let us not talk of bargains or bones or greed
     Now, may I say, we are agreed?
Mme. Thenardier
     That would quite fit the bill
     If she hadn't so often been ill
     Little dear, cost us dear
     Medicines are expensive, M'sieur
     Not that we begrudged a sou
     It's no more than we Christians must do!
M. and Mme. Thenardier
     One thing more, one small doubt
     There are treacherous people about
     No offense, please reflect
     Your intentions may not be... correct?
Valjean
     No more words, here's your price.
     Fifteen hundred for your sacrifice
     Come, Cosette, say goodbye,
     Let us seek out some friendlier sky.
     Thank you both for Cosette
     It won't take you too long to forget.
     [Valjean and Cosette leave the inn.]
     Come, Cosette, come, my dear
     From now on I will always be here
     Where I go, you will be.
Cosette
     Will there be children
     And castles to see?
Valjean
     Yes, Cosette,
     Yes, it's true
     There's a castle just waiting for you...
