The Engagement Party

[Sir Danvers]
My dear Simon
You're so gracious
To wish Lisa and Henry both well

[Stride]
Dear Sir Danvers
As you know, Sir
I wish Lisa the Sun and the Moon
But I have to confess
That I wish Henry Jekyll in Hell

[Utterson]
Henry, at last!
What could possibly be more important than your own engagement party?

[Jekyll]
John, I am close to a breakthrough discovery
Something spectacular, something sublime
Finally, a light in the darkness has come to me
Now, it is only a matter of time

[Dr Hastie Lanyon]
Henry Jekyll
You're a devil
You have robbed us of London's most lovely girl

[Mr Richard Enfield]
I could turn to drink
When I stop to think
Lisa's marrying a doctor
Instead of an earl

[Both]
Poor girl!

[Stride]
Doctor Jekyll, may I be the first to wish
You and your bride-to-be
Peace and prosperity?

[Jekyll]
Mr Stride, it's most civil of you
To say that, as you do
With such patent sincerity!
