MERMAN AND MERMAID.

(Grand Operatic Phantasmagoria)



OWONDLO AND FLEEHION.

Great magic in this Sacred World.
We're taken in a Spiritual Dungeon.
May God appear, they forbade us here.
It's a holy place, we fear.
What beautiful sounds,
What beautiful colors,
Hath this Vapor World of enchantment;
Quite strange, we crave no hunger,
Oh, King Reignall, cans't thou hear,
Grant us one wish:
Bring our parents near.

(Owondlo and Fleehion doze off in sleep)

THEIR PARENTS.

(Spirits)

Great wonder of wonders,
Our children do we see.

MALE PARENTS.

What! In the Spiritual Dungeon?

THEIR PARENTS.

Let us awaken them
Before King Reignall has time
To condemn them, perhaps,
Into eternity sublime.

ONE MALE PARENT.

Hush! be quiet, be careful for the King.

OTHER MALE PARENT.

Quite so, for in this holy place
The King does hear.
No secret can be made
In this sacred sphere.
