No. 13: TRIO (Hilarion, Cyril & Florian)
"I am a maiden, cold and stately"
| Hilarion. |
I am a maiden, cold and stately,
Heartless I, with a face divine.
What do I want with a heart, innately?
Ev'ry heart I meet is mine!
Ev'ry heart I meet is mine, is mine! |
| All. |
Haughty, humble, coy, or free,
Little care I what maid may be.
So that a maid is fair to see,
Ev'ry maid is the maid for me!
Dance. |
| Cyril. |
I am a maiden, frank and simple,
Brimming with joyous roguery;
Merriment lurks in ev'ry dimple
Nobody breaks more hearts than I!
Nobody breaks more hearts, more hearts than I! |

| All. |
Haughty, humble, coy, or free,
Little care I what maid may be.
So that a maid is fair to see,
Ev'ry maid is the maid for me!
Dance. |
| Florian. |
I am a maiden coyly blushing,
Timid am I as a startled hind;
Ev'ry suitor sets me flushing,
Ev'ry suitor sets me flushing:
I am the maid that wins mankind! |
| All. |
Haughty, humble, coy, or free,
Little care I what maid may be.
So that a maid is fair to see,
Ev'ry maid is the maid for me!
Haughty, humble, coy, or free,
Little care I what maid may be.
So that a maid is fair to see,
Ev'ry maid is the maid for me! |
