Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Luke the Labourer Scene I - A Village with distant view of the City of York. - Harvest-carts in the back-ground; a Group of Villagers discovered, celebrating the Harvest home. - An Alehouse at the side, and Luke seated at the door, smoking and disregarding their actions. Chorus. Our last load of corn is now in, boys, ´Tis time that our mirth should begin, boys: For grief would be worse than a sin, boys, At this our harvest home. Our labours have now a relief, boys, So there´s bacon and cabbage, and beef, boys, But a barrel of ale is the chief, boys, To rule o´er a harvest home. Enter Charles. Char. This is all as it should be, my lads; every thing is prepared for you in my cottage; but, as I am a bachelor, you must elect the prettiest lass among you to preside; so away with you, and be as happy as you ought. [The villagers go off, singing the burden of the chorus: enter Clara, hastily, R. H.; on perceiving Charles, she stops. You appear to be travelling post haste, Clara.
