FAUST and MARGUERITE.
FAUST (sings). There was a fellow at Harvard
Was wont to parties to go;
He met there often a maiden
To love whom he was not slow.

She gave him a little ribbon
That on her chignon did wave;
He took it, and swore he would keep it
Till laid away in his grave.
They both are youthful and happy,
And he now sits by her side,
But think it not strange when I tell you
That she is to be his bride.
MARGUERITE. O Faust, how touching is that ballad!
