PHOEBE:
Monty!
MONTY:
Look at Phoebe
Noble and pious
My esteem for her only grows
But, when
I am with Phoebe
I am on fire
Thinking of
SIBELLA:
Monty.
MONTY:
Sibella
Full of desire
Passion and dare I
Say it: love
But, when
I'm with Sibella
Whom do I admire
PHOEBE:
Monty, darling.
MONTY:
Phoebe
Perfect and lovely
Who couldn't love her
SIBELLA:
Oh, Monty?
MONTY:
Round and
Round and
Round and
Round and round it goes
MAGISTRATE:
What a fantastic story, your Lordship. You'll have something for your memoirs now, won't you?
MONTY:
Ha ha. My memoirs. My memoirs! Gasp! My memoirs!
COMPANY:
Oh, the memoirs
The memoirs
Oops, yes
What about the memoirs?
CHAUNCEY:
Here, my Lord. I found this journal in your cell and I thought you might need it.
MONTY:
Oh. How very thoughtful. Thank you!
COMPANY:
Monty Navarro
How have you come so very far?
Monty Navarro
Too far to comprehend
Monty Navarro
Do we know who you really are?
What will your future
Portend?
Monty Navarro
Monty Navarro
Monty D'Ysquith Navarro!
MONTY:
I am the ninth Earl of Highhurst
COMPANY:
And this is not...
MONTY:
The thought occurs. If I didn't poison the Earl, who did?
MISS SHINGLE:
Prussic Acid in just the right amount works almost instantly. Of course, if Monty had been found guilty, I had every intention of coming forward to confess my crime.
Long live the Earl!
MONTY:
I'm still the ninth Earl of Highhurst
COMPANY:
And this is not the...
CHAUNCEY:
I am standin' 'ere with poison in me pocket
COMPANY:
This is not the end!
