MERMAN AND MERMAID.

(Grand Operatic Phantasmagoria)

Rise, behold dear Fleehion, 'Tis the Submarine World We have entered again.

Blessed be our God. Come, let us pray, That the almighty Creator Hath spared our children's lives.

Not a sign of them.

No not here.

Let us call for them.

Oh merciful God, Oh merciful God, We have vainly sought Our children in vain. Cans't thou give us One ray of hope. Thou hearest not, Thou seest not. Thou hidest from us. Thou hast not The power to return. Oh merciful God.
