Now Is Gossip Put on Trial Lyrics

Chorus
Now is gossip put on trial,
Now the rumours either fail
Or are shouted in the wind
Sweeping furious through the land.
Now the liars shiver, for
Now if they've cheated we shall know:
We shall strike and strike to kill
At the slander or the sin.
Now the whisperers stand out
Now confronted by the fact.
Bring the branding iron and knife:
What's done now is done for life.

Benjamin Britten Lyrics
Peter Grimes (1999)
Peter Grimes! You Sailed Your Boat Peter Grimes, I Here Advise You! The Truth... The Pity... Interlude I: On the Beach Oh, Hang at Open Doors Hi! Give Us a Hand I Have to Go from Pub to Pub Let Her Among You Look, the Storm Cone! And Do You Prefer the Storm What Harbour Shelters Peace Interlude II: The Storm Past Time to Close! We Live and Let Live Have You Heard? Now the Great Bear and Pleiades Old Joe Has Gone Fishing Interlude III: Sunday Morning by the Beach Glitter of Waves Let This Be a Holiday This Unrelenting Work Fool to Let It Come to This! What Is It? People!... No! I Will Speak! We Planned That Their Lives Swallow! Shall We Go Now Is Gossip Put on Trial From the Gutter Interlude IV: Passacaglia Go There! Now!... Now! Peter Grimes! Nobody Here? Interlude V: Evening Assign Your Prettiness to Me Pah! Come Along, Doctor! Embroidery in Childhood Mr. Swallow! Who Holds Himself Apart Interlude VI: Fog Grimes! Grimes! Peter, We've Come to Take You Home To Those Who Pass the Borough
