The D'Oyly Carte Opera Company

The Sorcerer: Constance, My Daughter

Enter MRS. PARTLET with CONSTANCE, her daughter.
RECITATIVE - PART 1
(MRS PARTLET.)
Constance, my daughter, why this strange depression?
The village rings with seasonable joy,
Because the young and amiable Alexis,
Heir to the great Sir Marmaduke Pointdextre,
Is plighted to Aline, the only daughter
Of Annabella, Lady Sangazure.
You, you alone are sad and out of spirits;
What is the reason?
Speak, my daughter, speak!
