| Contents | Disc 1. Overture. Tripping hither, tripping thither ; Iolanthe! from thy dark exile ; Good morrow, good mother ; Fare thee well, attractive stranger ; Good morrow, good lover ; None shall part us from each other ; Loudly let the trumpet bray ; The law is the true embodiment ; My well-loved lord and guardian dear ; Nay, tempt me not ; Spurn not the nobly born ; My lords, it may not be! ; When I went to the bar ; When darkly looms the day ; This gentleman is seen ; For riches and rank I do not long ; The lady of my love has caught me ; Go away, madam ; Oh! chancellor unwary ; Henceforth, Strephon, cast away ; With Strephon for your foe -- Disc 2. When all night long ; Strephon's a member of parliament! ; When Britain really ruled the waves ; In vain to us you plead ; Oh, foolish Fay ; Though p'rhaps I may incur your blame ; Love, unrequited, robs me of my rest ; If you go in ; Fold your flapping wings ; If we're weak enough to tarry ; My lord, a suppliant at your feet I kneel ; It may not be for so the fates decide! ; Soon as we may. |
