Kurt Weill
Procession
[NARRATOR, spoken]
Once again, Cellini's life
Is under threat, all woe and strife
First we see the folks outside
Then within where the judges preside

[TWO VENDORS]
Souvenirs! Hurry, hurry, hurry, get your souvenirs!
Souvenirs of the trial of Cellini
The greatest trial of the season
Get your likeness of Benvenuto Cellini
The occasion isn't complete without our
Souvenirs! Hurry, hurry, hurry, get your souvenirs!

[HANGMAN]
When the bеll of doom is clanging
For the man awaiting hanging
Let's face thе fact with no misgiving
One man's death is another man's living

[MODELS & APPRENTICES]
Our master has met disaster!
Our sculptor will sculpt no more
But high up
He'll find a tie-up
Redesigning heaven's golden door
[EIGHT STANDARD BEARERS]
Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!
If you are guilty, fear ye!
If innocent, we clear ye!
Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!
Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!
