[Page]HARVEST-HOME. A COMIC OPERA.
ACT I.
SCENE I. A Lawn pretty far back, terminating with a Country-seat; on one Side, the Entrance to
Muzzy's House; and on the other, an Avenue of large Trees.—All the Spaces are intersected with Corn-Fields.
JOHN Muzzy!—John Muzzy!—I tell thee, the poor thing sha'n't be imposed upon!—She is friendless, and helpless; and, what's worse than all, lovesick.—Ah! I have been lovesick, myself, before now!—You know she was left by her lover, Patrick O'Liffy, last hay-time; and if it had not been for me, and my good Lady Signora Estella, Heaven knows what would have become of her!—Lord, Lord, how I do love to hear her chaunt her wild Irish notes! and then her comical brogue—
Hast done?—Why, what harm do I intend to do the wench! I like her Lango-lee's, and her Gramacree's, and her Lilly Lilly Loo's, as well as thee dost; and don't I prove it, by giving her a good husband?
Yes, with a vengeance!—Old Congo, the exciseman.
An honest fellow, like myself.
A drunkard, like thyself!
Why that's the same thing: all drunkards are honest fellows!—I hate your sober, sneaking rascals; give me the man that will take a dobbin with his friend!—But stay, stay, who have we here!
Some of your honest fellows, I suppose. Won't you ask them to take a dobbin with their friend?
Pray, Measter—
What!
Zur.
Oh, ho! Hem.
Your worship!
What do you say, friend?
Craving your pardon, and under favour, a'n't you Mr. Gaffer Muzzy; game-keeper of the hundred, bailly of the village, and steward to our outlandish lady of the manor?
I am, friend.—Hem!
I know'd it!—for they said I shou'd find you out by your portly belly and your handsome feace.
Yes; and they says you have the finest yeal in the kiounty!
Wife—get these honest people something to drink.
I thought so!—Well, I may as well fetch a quart; for, if he went, he'd bring them a gallon.
And now, friends, what's your business?
Why, hearing as how harvest was begining in these um here pearts, we comed to lend you a hond.
Can you drink like a fish?
You don't mean the same liquor, I hope?
Well answered!—I take you for my right-hand man.— As for you—
But here comes the liquor.
I do wonder, John Muzzy, thou canst take delight in this filthy liquor! 'Tis fit for nothing, but to make thee quarrel with thy neighbours.
Well, well; don't abuse it, wife, but give it me.
Why, hast no more manners? Let me drink to the strangers first!—Young men, your healths.
Faith, well pull'd!—Well, my lads, we shall have rare work this harvest: 'tis to begin with a wedding; how it will end, is another matter.
'Wounds! I do like a wedding, hugeously!—And who is to be married, pray?
Slidikins, she is a nice one!—You must know that my wife—
John Muzzy, let me tell my own story!
What a good creature it is!—She hates ale, and will [Page 5] drink first: she never talks, and yet nobody must tell a story but herself!
Measter Muzzy, you are wanted in field. Madam and the gentlefolks be there.
Run, John Muzzy! run.
One pull first.
Now for the love-story, Goody?
Why, you must know, that my dear child is to be married to-morrow.
I never heard as you had a datur.
Lord love you!—not my own child, Miss Cleora, Madam Estella's daughter! I nurs'd her—I am sorry I shall lose her.
'Wounds, never mind it! She'll find thee half a dozen young ones to nurse, in good time.
And pray does she love the gentleman intended for her?
Why, I don't know what to say to't. There was a rake of a young man she saw in London—one Glanville—he certainly did steal her heart; but I'll take care she sha'n't ha' he!
You will!
Yes; he!—a vile wretch, making the poor dear child's heart ache—
But suppose his own aches at the same time?
His, indeed!
Yes; his happiness, his very existence, depends upon Cleora's smile! He dissolves in rapture at her name! — he contemplates her charms with adoration! Inexpressible are his pangs at her absence! and, though he would even consent to this marriage, if it made her happy, it would be to him a source of irretrievable misery!—In short, I am Glanville, the wretched lover of Cleora.
And I his man Trim.
Never heard such a pretty-spoken young man in my life!
Pity me, then!—Assist me.
I can't think on't! — My lady will never consent.
Then we must manage it without her consent, Goody Muzzy.
Let me think!—Will you promise to do nothing but what I bid you?
Most willingly, my dear Goody Muzzy.
Solemnly!—Sacredly!
Ah! she said you were a coaxing creature.—But will you love her dearly?
Tenderly!—Rapturously! — My life, my desires, my every wish, shall be devoted to my dear Cleora!
And mine—to Goody Muzzy.
DUET.
What! two at a time, Goody!
Lord, now, if that little villain has not discovered us!
Yes, yes; nothing escapes me. I should be a town servant to little purpose, if I did not know all the secrets of the family.
Ecod! well zed, younker.
Ha! now don't palm your clod-hopping dialect upon me: for, do you see—'I am Glanville, the wretched lover of "Cleora!"
What a little villain!
Oh! I've seen all your tricks for these three days— But, Goody, 'twas shameful in you to impose upon the young gentleman!—Mr. Glanville, upon my honour, Cleora is not the daughter of Madam Estella.
Why, you little prating—
Choo! choo! choo!—Mother Muzzy, Mother Muzzy! didn't her dying friend leave the little soul to the good lady's care?—Estella was never married in her life—though, I fancy, if there was a good handsome fellow in her way—like me, if I was a little bigger—she would have no objection!—Hey, Muzzy? You elderly ladies, you know, love to have the young fellows at your feet.
The dog! how did he discover this!—We must not affront him.
Not for the world!—Upon my word—So you have found us out, then—He! he! he!
What d'ye think on't?—Ha! ha! ha!
What's to be done?
Why, you must buy me for as much as I am worth.
That's soon done.
Soon, is it!—I'll go this minute, and tell my lady every thing that has pass'd
Whew!
Here, here! come back. He did but jest!—Thou shalt have any thing; every thing: in short, favour my pretensions, and I'll make thy fortune.
That's what I call speaking out. Hitherto I have been a spy on you, by my lady's directions—now, like other spies, if I find yours the strongest side, I'll forsake my own, and turn deserter. But mum—Ah! little Unah, are you here!
I have brought you the milk, and the pigeons, fait [...] and a long tiresome way it was. But the fatigue was a pleasure to me; because I did it for you, Goody
What, you loikes to sarve Goody, mayhap!
Musha, my heart! I'd toil for her a whole day and a night, and all the rest of the twenty-four hours into the bargain.
Thank thee kindly, Unah!
Zounds! this is the girl I was so mad after last hay-time!—I pr'ythee, young woman, what's becom'd of the Irishman that used to be so sweet upon you?— Has he left you?
Ah! now, don't ax me.—If he had let me go along wid him, I would not have minded his leaving me a pin!
Well, chear thy heart; thou art a good girl, and mayst get a better.
Aye, aye; never mind that fellow!
Fellow! Fait, honey, if you were his fellow, there would be a better pair of you, than if he was yours—Ah! now, don't abuse him. I am sure, if it was not for his being fa [...]e to me, and forsaking me for ever, he is the best creature in the world.
All matters being now clearly explain'd, each must have a separate task. My master must marry Miss Cleora, and I Unah; Old Congo must be punish'd for his impudent pretensions to her; and John Muzzy must be cur'd of going to the alehouse.
Ah! if thou could'st but manage that—
I'll undertake it, if thou'lt manage the other.
Assisted by me, if you please, Mr. Trim!
Sir, I humbly beg your pardon.
Begone, begone! here comes Miss Cleora.
Like another Proserpine, surrounded by her nymphs!— Oh! I'll rescue her from that infernal Pluto, or lose my life.
My dear child, we want to talk to you.
Here I am, Madam, ready to hear you.
Here is a gentleman, for whom you seem to have an esteem; he asks your hand Speak for yourself, Mr. Scandaroon.
Why, Madam, you see I have but little to say. I have seen all the world; and men, and manners; and everything, and every body. I want to marry Miss. My way is to make but few words about any thing!
In one word, daughter, what do you think of my friend for a husband?
I am proud of your choice, Madam. I thank the gentleman for his good opinion of me; and yet, if I marry him— you know I shall leave you!
My sweet girl, I brought thee up! It was a delicious task; but, were you even to forget me, you ought to marry— 'tis a duty you owe society.
I forget you, Madam!
'Twas unkind to say so.
Come, come, Madam, we must not be too hasty with the young lady. Give her a little time. I can't press her, Madam. I have not the language of a lover; for I make but few words about any thing.
Yes, but I want to see her chearful. When I was of her age—
My angel! my Cleora! one single word, for Heaven's sake!
Not for the world—I'll see you in the meadow—I have much to tell you.
Exquisite sounds!—
—I've seen my angel, Trim! She spoke to me; I heard her sing, and listen'd with the same rapture as a blest soul attends to the voice of the seraph that wings it's way to heaven!
My master's in a rare rapturous humour!—Oh, here come my associates!—Well, good people, 'tis time we should enter upon our different stations!—My little Unah, if I serve the exciseman a good trick, will you love me?
Yes; to be after being serv'd as I was by Patrick!
Oh, no; I'll love you for ever.
And a fortnight!
Come, come, she sha'n't be teaz'd.
Well, well; I'll take some other time.—Goody Muzzy, I know you hate old Congo; and therefore I shall set him and your husband together by the ears.
What to do!
To keep him from the alehouse.
Lord help your head!
I will, I tell you; but you must assist.
I! why, so much I love him, that, rather than he should injure his health, I'd drink all the liquor myself.
Very considerate, upon my word!—Pray, was he ever jealous?
Jealous!—I never gave him cause.
Oh, you must give him a little directly.
A little!—If I do any thing, I had better give him a good deal; for John's woundy dull of apprehension.
Oh, as much as ever you please.
But can't you be telling us what all dis [...]s for?
I want Goody to appear fond of the exciseman; let me alone for the rest.
Oh, Lord! not I. What would John say?
He won't be thumping you, will he?
Oh, no, child! 'tis I thump him. But suppose the old fellow should make love to me in good earnest?
Why den, sure, can't you consent to it in jest?
Aye, aye; we shall be too near for him to use force.
Force! I say, force!—Oh, I should like to catch any body forcing of me!
You must find him, Unah; and break it to him, while I stay here to receive Old Muzzy.—Pickle, you go and watch down in the meadow—And, Goody, do you go and prepare Cleora.
Well said, Goody. The old girl has some spirit yet!— Oh, here comes John, half-seas over, i'faith!—Ah, Measter! you have been at the barrel.
Ah! what, Russet-grey!—Yes, I have. We must empty the poor things, how could they get fill'd else? Where's your partner?
At your house, with the women-folks. I am of your way of thinking. Hang the petticoats, I say; give me yeal.
Strike us thy fist!—Remember, I give you a general invitation to the buttery. You are my friend—I'll tell you all my sorrows; nothing but sorrow makes me drink!
Indeed!
You know I have a wife.
So you have.
She is the devil!—Don't you tell her I said so!—She has such a tongue—I should never go to the alehouse, if it was not for her damn'd tongue!—Never.
'Wounds! that's well enough.—But I have heard 'em say, a wife and a guinea are two bad things; one a body can't keep, and t'other one can't get rid of.
Well said, Linsey-woolsey!—There's one thing in my wife, though, that all men are not blest with—She's honest!
Icod! so we be all, till we be found out.
What do you mean by that?
Mean! that I can sing your song to another guess- [...]ort of burden.
Pooh! pooh! all nonsense. Odd's wounds! I should like to see her old wither'd jaws trying to smile at a lover! No, no! she is a devil of a fury, to be sure; but all's safe here, for all that.
Dost think so?—Why, then, come along with me; and I'll shew thee one old fox that's after thy poultry.
Here's to thee, however, all the same.
DUET.
But here come the reapers!—Do you go, Master Muzzy, and sleep off your ale; and then well set to work at this discovery.
So! so!
In short, my dear Cleora, there is not a moment's time for hesitation: we can get a chaise instantly.
You know, Glanville, this was our former quarrel!
You cannot be more obedient to the will of Estella than I could wish you: but consider, charming Cleora, she was always inexorable to me; and her title to your esteem is not, perhaps—
You must part! you must part! The reapers are coming this way, and my lady and Mr. Scandaroon with them!
Here they are, sure enough!
ACT II.
SCENE I. A Hall.
THY little heart does not know it's own wishes.
Yes, it does! It wishes for a husband—if I must marry—that can make it dance with joy at the sight of him, and whose absence can give it pain; aye, pain!—but then it's such a sort of pain, that's better than all the pleasure in the world!
And pray does not Mr. Scandaroon do all this?
No, indeed! If he was only a friend, or a relation, though ever so near, I should love him dearly: but, for a husband—
You prefer young Glanville?
Young Glanville, Madam!
Yes—you have seen him; listen'd to him; met him privately; promis'd—Oh! Cleora—to elope with him!
Why, Ma'am, if—
Come, my dear girl, do not consider me as a mother, but as a friend. I'll see him for you. If he should prove worthy of you, I'll even interest Mr. Scandaroon in his behalf; but you must first solemnly bind yourself, neither to marry him, nor any other, without my approbation.
After this, Madam, it would be the highest want of duty not to trust you implicitly!—Take my hand; bestow it where you please; and may the prudent foresight of a parent lead me to happiness.
Dear girl! she knows not half the felicity that awaits her. A parent's consent will, indeed, ratify her happiness. But now, to see after my own affairs a little.
The post-chaise, Madam!—
—Eh! eh!—why—I say—
What do you say?
I say, tea's ready!
Very well.
I parried that well, at least. Poor turtles! 'twould be a pity to disturb them. How nobly he swore; then how prettily she blushed—how graceful he dropp'd upon his knee; then how tenderly she bid him rise—how rapturously he snatched her hand; how reluctantly she withdrew it—and, in the struggle, such eagerness, such warmth, such—Oh! I wish I was but three years older.
Scene—A Grove.
Troth, and you are right enough, Mr. Trim!—She is a good creature, and loves Old Muzzy as she ought; and, sure enough, if she can keep him from making himself sick by going to the filthy alehouse, 'twill be no bad thing for his health.
It has sober'd him already; the fumes of the liquor gave way to the fumes of jealousy, just as water buries itself under oil. In short, there are two things to be done, to bring Muzzy to his fire-side—and you, little Unah, to mine!
Why, perhaps it might be warmer than Old Congo's; but I am afraid it would sooner grow cold: your's would be a blaze, like straw, and then go out; but his would be, like peat, always burning, and yet produce no fire but smoke.
Hush, hush! you jade, to business.—Here he comes! I shall be at hand.
Ah! my little syren of the sod! when is this marriage of ours to be? I long to bring up the young ones. It must be at the Harvest-Home—we shall have a house full of them.
Ah! now, don't be eating the bread till the corn's thrashed—they are not born yet.
Oh, I don't despair of living to be a great-grandfather!
What, for you and the other infants to be children together!—But all this is fine talking. You false-hearted creature, you; you are as bad as Patrick!
I am thy humble slave, my little humming-bird from the banks of the Shannon.
All boder and game! Do you tink it is to Goody Muzzy you are talking?
Goody Muzzy! What, that old Jezebel!
Ah! now, don't be giving me a copy of your countenance—Don't you know that you would hang yourself for her, but dat it would be de death of you?
Never had any serious thoughts of her in my life!
May be, then, they were all comical ones!
None of any sort—I have a kind of veneration for all old women.
Fait, and you are right enough: you don't know how soon you may be an old woman yourself.—What, den, you won't make love to her for your own sake?
Not I, indeed.
Will you do it den a little for mine?
What pleasure can it give thee?
I'll tell you—I have promis'd Goody never to marry without her consent; and she won't give it me till Gaffer breaks his pipe and noggin, and stays at home with her. Now, if you'd make him jealous—
Matters could be explain'd afterwards. He would turn sober, and we should be a comfortable little family together.
Why, what a guess you have!
But suppose she should really fall in love with me?
Why then you must help her up again.
Remember, I do it all for thee, my little pipe and drone.
All for me, and a little for yourself, honey.
Well, tickle my ears with one of thy enchanting airs, a merry one—and I'll set about it.
Master Congo, Goody Muzzy is seeking you far and near.
Indeed! the thing looks serious!—If any thing should happen, I sha'n't be the first that has been well with his friend's wife!
Can't you go and comfort the poor creature?
I go!—Bye, my song-thrush!
Ah, your servant!—And do you be gone; for here comes old Muzzy!
Very pretty work here!—I have found the assignation, the very letter of appointment!
Yes, dat Trim forged.
Let me see—
'CHOICEST commodity of my heart!'—There's a beginning for an exciseman!— 'if you will but cheat your husband often minutes duty, you will find me in the grove by the mansion, impatiently waiting to gauge your affections, which I [Page 21] hope are, like my own, above proof. I long to smuggle thee; for thou hast made a seizure of the heart of thy slave,
Ah! what, are you here?—
—You an't going to stay, are you?
Is it dat you want me gone, honey?
If I tell her, I do—she is a woman, and will stay on purpose.—I have a little business here, to be sure.
Why, this is not an alehouse and what pleasure can you have in any business but drinking? Come, come, I know what you are about—An't you asham'd of yourself, to let old Congo fall in love with poor, dear Goody?
She knows it.
To be sure I don't!
But how is all this?—Congo was to be married to you!
Yes; the false-hearted wretch—Oh, he is as bad as the best of you!
Zounds!—It's a comical thought!—Unah, you are a merry one, when you please.
I was, before I lost Patrick.
Pooh! pooh! hang Patrick!—You and I ought to serve my wife and old Congo a trick.
A trick!
Yes; I ought to make love to you, out of revenge!
Get along with your colt's tooth! You'd be a pretty winning devil to make love! Would you begin wid axing me to drink wid you?
Nay; but, Unah—
Can't you be easy, and you'll have a love-scene in perfection; for here come the turtles!
Dear neighbour Congo—kind neighbour Congo— you are so tender—so pressing—so eager—so different from that brute, my husband!
Brute!
Aye, aye!
But will you always be kind to me?
She grows devilish fond!—I wish somebody would come and interrupt us.—Always, my love.
Charming!
Tender! pressing! and charming!—When did she find time to learn all these pretty words?
Why, sure, was it not while you was at the alehouse?
Oh, neighbour; I wish my husband was dead—
Devilishly oblig'd to you, upon my soul!
I'd marry you in four-and-twenty hours after I had buried him!
But, you see, I'm in good health, and don't chuse to be buried.
What, you are there?—I am glad of it.
And, pray, are you glad of it, old Puncheon; old Run-goods?
Why, you see, neighbour—
Yes, yes, I see very plainly that you are an old rogue; and that, under a pretence of coming after the chicken, you are cackling after the old hen: but I'd have you to know, I am cock of the dunghill, and nobody shall approach my partlet.
But I say he shall!
He shall!—Oh, we'll see that presently! Where's Lumkin and Sturdy? He shall first take a walk through the horse-pond; and then we'll set Thunder at him, that he may have a good run to dry himself.
Suppose we threaten him a little with the revenge?
Hold your tongue, you jade!
John Muzzy, it does not signify—If you were to kill him, I'd get somebody else!
The devil you would!—And, pray, how often do you mean to play these tricks?
Every time you go to the alehouse.
All in a story!—What's to be done?
Done! Why, you must beg her pardon, and never be dry again; so that you may not want to drink.
What, to please a liquorish wife, and a wanton old gauger of Hollands!
Come, come, you had better be easy—it was in joke dis time; it may be in earnest next. Crack your dobbin in your chimney-corner, and be quiet.
Aye, or in mine; where he'll hear the prattle of all our little excisemen—won't he, Unah?
Fait, don't you tink de country's over-run enough wid dem already?—Shall I tell you how you'll do? As you intend to live till you are very old, you shall have my grand-daughter, after I am married to Patrick.
Friend Congo, imitate me, and cope with them no longer; they are a sweet set of creatures, without a fault in the world; they are always prudent, always handsome, always good-tempered, and always silent!
Scene, Unah and Trim.
And now, little Unah, can you think of me?
Yes, sure; and with a great deal of pleasure.
Is it possible!
Ah! now, don't be too much in a hurry!—Nobody gets my love but Patrick: when I have two hearts, you shall have one of them; but, you see, as I never had but one, and he stole it, how can I give you the other?
Why, then, I must wear the willow!
I'll tell you what wear—Wear a heart that rejoices in the happiness of others; and that's a willow that might grow in the garden of a prince.
Faith, Sir, I had like to have done your business effectually: but impudence never fails me at a pinch; and so I gave the matter such a turn—
But is the chaise ready?
Yes, Sir.—Hush!—She's coming!—Zounds! it's the old Codger!—What the devil can he want!—I won't be seen.
Sir, your servant.
What does the old fool want?
Your name's Glanville?
Well, Sir—
Nay, Sir, I've a little business with you; I sha'n't detain you long. I make but few words about any thing.
You'll be expeditious, then, I hope?
This belongs to you.
What's here?—The writings of my uncle's estate!
I am his executor, you his heir! I make but few words about any thing.
Nay, Sir, permit me—
And yet I care not if I speak a word to you on a certain subject. You love Cleora?
I adore her!
But you have been a very sad young man—a rake!
I was, Sir, till her charms reclaim'd me.
Does Cleora love you?
I flatter myself she does.
Marry her, then; I give her up. She is ruin'd; she has not a penny in the world! I make but few words about any thing.—Your servant.
Ruin'd! how?—But no matter. I thank fortune that has put in my power—But here she comes!—My dear Cleora, love and happiness await thee! The chaise is at the bottom of the avenue, and nothing can retard our felicity!
I cannot consent, Glanville! I have made a solemn promise to my mother—
To whom? You are abus'd, Cleora; you have no mother!
What do you mean?
That Estella has bred you up, and taken care of your fortune, out of respect to your real parents; but has carefully conceal'd from you the amount of one, and the quality of the other.
'Tis impossible!
'Tis truth: I can give you indubitable proof of it.
Then I am ruined!—For the implicit consent I have given her, at first verbally, and at length under my hand has certainly put me entirely in her power!
I'm glad on't!
Glad!—Why?
Because my fortune shall retrieve the loss, and convince you of my disinterested affection. I am in possession of all that belong'd to my uncle.
Yet, I cannot consent!
Cruel, Cleora! to refuse me the best and most exquisite opportunity that ever presented of convincing you of the purity of my passion.
Scene the Last —All the Characters.
Accept his offer, Cleora; he has told you the truth. I am not your mother, though I hope to be so to-morrow morning.
How, Madam!
By marrying your father.
My father!
Yes, my child! Come to my arms! Upon the death of your mother, whose loss I could not bear, I left you in Estella's care, and travell'd to improve my fortune. The extravagant frolic I put in practice has answered my purpose beyond expectation; for I find my old friend Glanville's nephew as honest a fellow as his uncle; therefore, to reward the fidelity of Estella, and his affection, we'll go all to church to-morrow morning. I make but few words about any thing!
Now the weighty matters are discuss'd, we'll take the liberty to trouble your honours with our affairs.—But, first, health and happiness to our noble patrons!
Oh, till they are tir'd of it!
Well, I hope we all begin to agree?
Why, yes, Sir. Unah is resolv'd to think of nobody but Patrick, and we have agreed to teaze her no longer: Master Muzzy is never to get drunk; and his wife is never to fall in love till he does!
Now, if I may be so bold, I think we are more likely to disagree about what's to come than what's past.
Aye! How so?
Why, your worship, I foresee we shall have a great deal of feasting—
Why, dat's only seeing an inch before your nose?
Spits will groan with oxen, and fountains will flow with wine; and if we don't take care to be very regular in our proceedings—
Why, to be sure, dere will be a great deal of confusion!
Well, well, you shall all have your stations. Trim shall be master of the ceremonies; old Muzzy shall have the care of the cellar—
And old Congo shall gauge the barrels, to see how much they drink.
Thank your worship!—I will be so drunk to-night!
How, John Muzzy!
For the last time, wife!
And, to shew you we shall be as anxious for your merriment as our own, we'll mix with you, and lead up the first country-dance.
And thus we bid every votary of pure and disinterested passion welcome to—Love's Harvest-Home!
