The Bargain
Valjean and Young Cosette, hand-in-hand, approach the now empty inn, singing. They arrive at the inn.
Valjean:
I found her wandering in the wood
This little child, I found her trembling in the shadows
And I am here to help Cosette
And I will settle any debt you may think proper
I will pay what I must pay
To take Cosette away.
There is a duty I must heed,
There is a promise I have made
For I was blind to one in need
I did not see what stood before me
Now her mother is with God
Fantine’s suffering is over
And I speak here with her voice
And I stand here in her place
And from this day and evermore
Mme. Thénardier:
Let me have your coat, M’sieur
Valjean:
Cosette shall live in my protection
Thénardier:
You are very welcome here
Valjean:
I will not forsake my vow
Thénardier:
Take a glass
Mme. Thénardier:
Take a chair
Valjean:
Cosette shall have a father now!
