The Sorcerer: I Rejoice That It's Decided
QUINTETTE.ALEXIS, ALINE, SIR MARMADUKE, MRS. PARTLET, and DR. DALY.(ALEXIS.)
I rejoice that it's decided,
Happy now will be my life,
For my father is provided
With a kind and tender wife.
(ENSEMBLE.)
She will tend him, nurse him, mend him,
Air his linen, dry his tears;
Bless the thoughtful fates that send him
Such a wife to soothe his years!
(ALINE.)
No young giddy thoughtless maiden,
Full of graces, airs, and jeers –
But a sober widow, laden
With the weight of fifty years!
(SIR M.)
No high-born exacting beauty
Blazing like a jewelled sun –
But a wife who'll do her duty,

As that duty should be done!
(ENSEMBLE.)
She will tend him etc.
(MRS. P.)
I'm no saucy minx and giddy –
Hussies such as them abound –
But a clean and tidy widdy
Well be-known for miles around!
DR. D.
All the village now have mated,
And are happy as can be –
I to live alone am fated:
No one left to marry me!
No one left to marry he!
(ENSEMBLE.)
She will tend him etc.
