Well, youve just heard some questions and some
answers,Not all, of course.
I know that kings like Herod should not be. You
have tohave guns and men to protect those bases.
We cut the standing army down to eighty men,
rightafter the Revolution. VOICE: We lost our way for a while but weve found our
way. SOLDIER: You understand plain Latin, dont you?
For there was no chamberAnd there was no room. We
didnt fold up and yell for a dictator.
VOICE: We dont give one long low hoot for your
master race. What sort of news comes into the quiet room?
Well, its a long time coming,And, meanwhile, were
the wheat between the stones.
You know well enoughWhy none would tarry with us. I
can remember her when she was merry,A long time since.
How many Kate Smithsare coming off the production
line? I lay awhile in sleepAnd a voice said to me, Gloria, gloria,Gloria in excelsis
deo. Its a black storm crowding the sky and a cold wind blowing.
WIFE: I know that, somehow, kingsShould not be
wicked and grind down the people.
Twelve thousand feet, area sevenl Proceed to
engageenemy! SARAH: I have a little bell my father gave me. LEAH: Now, mistress,
mistress, tis my fault not yours.
Yep, all by its little self, once you turn those
wheels.
Leah and Sarah, come and help your mistress! VOICE:
Whatever happens and whatever falls,We pledge ourselves to liberty and
faith.
I hear the wind blowingAcross the bare thorn,I fear
not King HerodIf this child may be born.
SERGEANT: Theys two hundred men with their rifles
just come downhere from the hills of Kentucky! NARRATOR: People, you people, risen
and awake.
I can remember her when she was merry,A long time
since. SARAH: I have a little bell my father gave me. All the same, Susy, Idkind of
like to hear from you. There was no room within itFor any but the foe. You have
tohave guns and men to protect those bases. Its a black storm crowding the sky and a
cold wind blowing.
Is it your business what King Herod
does?
VOICE: Says you were faint of heart and little of
mind?
They follow the poor shepherds to the stable. We
made five States a sea of wheat and corn. Ivegot the jump of a flea and the guts of
a terrier and Im harderto kill than an army mule.
