This way! This way
What's That? Surely Music?
(Leading To:)
Stop! Stop! Stop!
O, Mark, Who Are They
Jenifer, Jenifer My Darling
What Steps Are Those?
Ho, Ho, Ho, Ho, Ho
What Sort Of Place Is This D'you Think?
So You, So You Are Mark's Fine Brood Of Friends?
So You, So You, So You’re The Company My Daughter Keeps!
Here I Am, Sir, What Can I Do?
Jenifer! Jenifer! my daughter Jenifer!
Returning To The Earth Is Cruel
Come Now With Me And Drop This Childish Masquerade
Is It So Strange
You, You Who Were With Me When She Left Me
See By A Heavenly Magic In This Glass
Call - Crying As They’re Flying
Jack, Don’t Lets Go With All The Others
What Day Is It?
I’ll Lay The Baby To My Breast
(Strephon Enters From Behind The Temple)
(Some Of The Trees Appear To Move)
The Earth In Autumn
The Waters In Winter
The Air In Spring
(Leading To:)
Ah! They’ll Kill Him!
(Neat And Ready To Rejoin)
Sun Shines On A Midsummer Day
Evening And Night
Ohay! Ohay!
No! King Fisher Summons You
Keep The Holster Close By You
Now, Bella, Call The Ancients
Do You Accept My Challenge?
See, Where We Carry On Our Mighty Shoulder
I Needn’t Tell Madame Sosostris
Who Hopes To Conjure With The World Of Dreams.
I Alone Cannot Consult Myself
You Who Consult Me.
I See A Meadow
She Saw What Happens In The Soul.
Pride Is Virtue In A Man Of Power
(For A Moment The Stage Is Quite Still)
King Fisher’s Dead
(After The She Ancient Returns Up Stage)
Fire In Summer
Was It A Vision?
O Summer Sun
(The Moonlight Has Faded Out)
