Well, I thought I had it all learned, and I looked at the blocking notes Robert Ray had sent me and find that it refers to a "second verse" of The Soldiers of Our Queen. Well, this isn't in the published score, but it IS in Bradley. I assume that the verse in question is
United as a clan/ We have arranged between us.
To introduce this plan / Within the courts of Venus:
With one emotion stirred / Beneath or belts of leather.
The Colonel gives the word / And all propose together!
I like it.
Lots of rain in the UK. This may not be sunny music!
