No. 6 - Song - Violet and Chorus
| Violet: | We've a scheme for my safe hiding, Ah! Yes, hiding, in Miss Hurricane's room abiding. Ah! Yes, abiding, And my father may search vainly. Ah! Yes, vainly, While his lord will dance insanely, Ah! Yes, insanely. They may think they'll yet subdue me, Just as though they really knew me, But I'll never, never marry Any one but Alvin Barry. Yes |
| Men: | They'll beset her, they'll not get her, They'll beset her, they'll not get her, They'll beset her, they'll not get her, get her, get her, They'll not get her. |
| Dolly: | Fly! he comes! |
| Rufus: | He needs "be lively" to catch on. |
| Dolly: | Lively as |
| Rufus: | The "Elevated" |
| Both: | To scratch on. |
| Violet: | Love comes like a summer sigh, Softly o'er you stealing, Love comes and you wonder why To its shrine you're kneeling? Love comes and the days go by While your fate Love's sealing, Love some day must come to all, Come to all, come to all, Love some day must come to all, Come, yes, Love comes like a summer sigh. |
| All: | Softly o'er you stealing, |
| Violet: | Love comes and you wonder why |
| All: | To its shrine you're kneeling. |
| Violet: | Love comes and the days go by |
| All: | While your fate Love's sealing, Love some day must come to all, Come to all, come to all, Love some day must come to all, Come to all. |
| Dolly: | He's here enough. |
| Rufus: | We're up to snuff. |
| Knickerbocker: | Gentlemen, you have bad colds I find. |
| Rufus: | Sir! Hay-fever, the very worst kind. |
| Knickerbocker: | Gentlemen, your hair, your hair's too short. |
| Rufus: | We double reefed to 'pear at court. |
| Knickerbocker: | Enough, enough, enough, enough. Gentlemen, I'm looking for my daughter. |
| Rufus: | He is looking for his daughter. |
| Knickerbocker: | I fear, I fear, I fear, I fear. Gentlemen, I fear she has eloped. |
| Rufus: | Yes, he fears she has eloped. |
| Knickerbocker: | I've searched the steamer over all to no avail. |
| Miss Hurricane: | Oh! Gen'ral Knickerbocker, have you seen the whale? |
| Knickerbocker: | Vainly, vainly, vainly have I sought her. |
| Miss Hurricane: | Vainly, vainly, vainly has he sought her. |
| Rufus: | Vainly, vainly, vainly has he sought her. |
| Miss Hurricane: | What, the whale? |
| Knickerbocker: | No, Violet, my daughter. |
| Ensemble: | No! Gen'ral Knickerbocker has not seen the whale. |
