Chorus. The Public Gallery
(D'Oyly Carte, 1960)
Hark, the hour of ten is sounding;
Hearts with anxious fears are bounding,
Hall of Justice, crowds surrounding,
Breathing hope and fear -

For today in this arena,
Summoned by a stern subpœna,
Edwin, sued by Angelina,
Shortly will appear.

Shortly will appear.

Hark, the hour of ten is sounding;
Hearts with anxious fears are bounding,
Hall of Justice, crowds surrounding,
Breathing hope and fear -
