Lyrics: Valjean Arrested - Valjean Forgiven

[CONSTABLE ONE] Tell his reverence your story [CONSTABLE TWO] Let us see if he's impressed [CONSTABLE ONE] You were lodging here last night [CONSTABLE TWO] You were the honest Bishop's guest. [CONSTABLE ONE] And then, out of Christian goodness [CONSTABLE TWO] When he learned about your plight [CONSTABLE ONE] You maintain he made a present of this silver. [BISHOP] That is right. But my friend you left so early Surely something slipped your mind [The bishop gives Valjean two silver candlesticks] You forgot I gave these also Would you leave the best behind? So, Messieurs, you may release him For this man has spoken true I commend you for your duty And God's blessing go with you.
