No. 12 - Trio - Gretchen, Rip and Derrick -
"Now Won't You Come?"
| Gretchen (to Derrick): | |
| Now won't you come along with me? You do not care for me, I see! |
|
| Rip (aside): | (Dearest heart!) |
| Gretchen: | Come away, For here I will no longer stay! |
| Derrick (aside): | (She's mine! I triumph!) |
| (aloud) | Yes, in thy love revenge I'll quaff! At him who's lost, now can I laugh! |
| Rip & Derrick: | Yes! I can laugh! |
| Gretchen (to Rip): | Oh! trust me still,
nor doubt I love thee, By the blue heaven bent above thee, Yes! come what may, I'll love my love alway! |
| Rip & Derrick: | Mine alone! mine alone! |
| Gretchen: | To him I've spoken, Almost heart-broken! Yes! I'm his all alone, I must own! |
| Derrick: | Mine, mine alone! |
| Derrick & Rip: | Now to part, now to part, |
| Gretchen: | Now to part! Now to part, tho' it breaks my heart! |
| Rip: | Farewell! farewell! And whisper low One loving word before I go! |
| Derrick: | My love! |
| Gretchen: | My love! |
| Rip: | My love! |
| Derrick: | My love! |
| Gretchen: | Alas! from thee I now must go! |
| Gretchen & Rip: | No other love my heart will know! |
| Derrick: | Come, let's go! |
| Gretchen & Rip: | No other love my heart will know... Ever know! |
