MERMAN AND MERMAID.
(Grand Operatic Phantasmagoria)
3RD SEA NYMPH.
If you really expect
To win a lover,
Just leave one sparkling ring
On the Magic Table Rock,
In Nature's Garden;
Perchance good luck will bring.
5TH SEA NYMPH.
Just leave a dazzling pebble.
4TH SEA NYMPH.
(Leaves and goes to the Magic Table Rock and places there a diamond ring. A loud rumbling noise is heard again. Owondlo hurries to a nearby stateroom.)
ALL SEA NYMPHS.
Great magic, that monster fish perhaps?
1ST SEA NYMPH.
Hurry, he's coming this way.
4TH SEA NYMPH.
Is it true? what say ye,
A lover is coming for me.
5TH SEA NYMPH.
(Nymphs all hide)
No! no! that monster fish.
MAJOR BOOTH.
(Ghost appears)
What seekest thou?
OWONDLO.
A weapon for defense,
From dangers of the sea.
