Problem in court - One Man Opera - Trial by Jury

One man sings 'That seems a reasonable proposition' and 'A nice dilemma' from Gilbert and Sullivan's opera 'Trial by Jury'.

Lyrics:

JUDGE.
That seems a reasonable proposition,
To which, I think, your client may agree.

COUNSEL.
But, I submit, m’lud, with all submission,
To marry two at once is Burglaree!
In the reign of James the Second,
It was generally reckoned
As a rather serious crime
To marry two wives at a time.

CHORUS.
Oh, man of learning!

USHER and JURY.
Oh, man of learning!

JUDGE.
A nice dilemma we have here,
That calls for all our wit,
For all our wit:

COUNSEL.
And at this stage, it don’t appear
That we can settle it.

DEFENDANT.
If I to wed the girl am loth
A breach ’twill surely be

PLAINTIFF.
And if he goes and marries both,
It counts as Burglaree!

ALL.
A nice dilemma we have here,
That calls for all our wit.
