(note: these words come at the beginning of the music, which is several songs seguing into each other. Oh well.)
WEYTHRAN: A man of dark and dismal fate,
I'm here to spoil your fun.
Make no pretense about your state,
You're tainted, every one.
PARTY: Not everyone?
WEYTHRAN: Yes, every one!
PARTY: How sad for everyone.
WEYTHRAN: These warnings that I say
Are what I've seen for all these years.
PARTY: Poor fellow!
WEYTHRAN: If upon you now they weigh,
Then you shall understand my fears.
PARTY: Poor fellow!
WEYTHRAN: If pride you can set by,
Take heed of my dread tidings now--
My senses do not lie,
Your Broken flaws I spy;
We all are Comet-scarred, this I can avow.
PARTY: (sobbing) Poor fellow!
Your senses do not lie,
Our Broken flaws you spy;
We all are Comet-scarred, this you do avow.
JONATHAN: He does avow!
add MANUS: We all avow!
Your senses do not lie,
Our Broken flaws you spy;
We all are Comet-scarred, this you do avow.
PARTY: Poor fellow!
