[ARMY OFFICER, with loud-hailer as before]
You at the barricade, listen to this
The people of Paris sleep in their beds
You have no chance
No chance at all
Why throw your lives away?

[ENJOLRAS]
Let us die facing our foes
Make them bleed while we can

[COMBEFERRE]
Make them pay through the nose

[COURFEYRAC]
Make them pay for every man

[ENJOLRAS]
Let others rise to take our place
Until the earth is free!

[The final battle commences. All on the barricade are killed except VALJEAN and MARIUS, who is wounded and unconscious. VALJEAN discovers that MARIUS is still alive and carries him down a manhole into the sewers.]
