No. 27: FINALE ACT III
"With joy abiding"
| Princess. |
With joy abiding,
Together gliding
Through life's variety,
In sweet society,
And thus enthroning
The love I'm owning,
On this atoning
I will rely! |
| Chorus. |
It were profanity
For poor humanity
To treat as vanity
The sway of Love.
In no locality
Or principality
Is our mortality
Its sway above! |
| Hilarion. |
When day is fading,
With serenading
And such frivolity
Of tender quality —
With scented showers
Of fairest flowers,
The happy hours
Will gaily fly!
The happy hours will gaily fly! |
| Chorus. |
It were profanity
For poor humanity
To treat as vanity
The sway of Love.
In no locality
Or principality
Is our mortality
Its sway above! |

|
| Princess & Hilarion. |
Soprano I. |
Soprano II, Tenor & Bass. |
| |
In no locality
Or principality
Is our mortality
Its sway above! |
Its sway above! |
With scented showers
Of fairest flowers,
The happy hours
Will gaily fly! |
|
Its sway above! |
| All. |
In no locality,
Or principality,
Is our mortality
Above the sway of love! |
CURTAIN.
