Pirates Of Penzance Oh False One!


Fredrick-Oh false one! You have deceived me!
Ruth-I have deceived you?
Fredrick-Yes! Deceived me.....You told me you were fair
as gold!
Ruth-And master am I not so?
Fredrick-And now I see you're plain and old!
Ruth-I'm sure I'm not a jot so!
Fredrick-Upon my innocence you play...
Ruth-I'm not the one to plot so!
Fredrick-Your face is lined your hair is grey!
Ruth-It gradually got so!
Fredrick-Faithless woman to deceive me, I who trusted
so.
Ruth-Master, master do not leave me! Hear me ere you go
Fredrick-Faithless woman....
Ruth-Master, master...
Fredrick-FAITHLESS WOMAN!
Ruth-Master, master
(they both sing.....)
Ruth-My love without reflecting, oh do not be
rejecting! Take a maiden tender, her affection raw and
green. At very highest rating, has been accumulating.
Summers seventeen, summers seventeen. Don't beloved
master, crush me with disaster! What is such a dower to
the dower I have here?
(Ruth and Fredrick at once....but singing different
words)
Ruth-Don't beloved master, crush me with disaster! What
is such a dower to the dower I have here?
Fredrick-Yes, your former master, saves you from
disaster! Your love would be uncomfortably fervid, it
is clear.
Ruth-My love unabating,
Fredrick(echoing Ruth)-If as you are stating,
Ruth-Has been accumulating,
Fredrick-Has been accumulating,
Ruth-Forty-seven years,
Fredrick-FORTY-SEVEN YEARS?!
Ruth-Forty-seven years.
Fredrick-Faithless woman to deceive me, I who trusted
so!
(They again sing different parts.....same as before.)
