If husband scold and wife retort,

Then bear them far asunder;

Her to the burning south transport,

And him the North Pole under.

THE WHOLE ORCHESTRA (fortissimo)

Flies and midges all unite

With frog and chirping cricket,

Our orchestra throughout the night,

Resounding in the thicket!

Yonder doth the bagpipe come!

Its sack an airy bubble.

Schnick, schnick, schnack, with nasal hum,

Its notes it doth redouble.
