Comfort and Joy
Blurb: Mr. Bennet receives three interviews with (future) sons-in-law, to the tune of the Christmas carol, God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen.
Mr. Wickham's Verse
Greetings, Father Bennet,
And how are you today?
As you well know, the deed is done.
There's nothing you can say,
For I have wed your daughter.
And now my debts are paid!
Such a feeling of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy.
Such a feeling of comfort and joy!
Mr. Bingley's Verse
God rest you, Mr. Bennet,
And how are you today?
I thank you for this interview.
This is what I must say:
I want to wed your daughter,
To love her everyday!
Give us blessings for comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy.
Give us blessings for comfort and joy!
Mr. Darcy's Verse
Good morning, Mr. Bennet,
And how are you today?
You may not know why I am here
So I will not delay.
I have asked Elizabeth
To be my fiancée.
I bring tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy.
I bring tidings of comfort and joy!
Mrs. Bennet's Verse
My poor nerves, Mr. Bennet!
My nerves are sorely frayed!
We have one daughter married,
And two more on the way!
I'll plan the wedding breakfast
And sew the lingerie.
Oh, this brings me comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy.
Oh, this brings me comfort and joy!
