rate me<br>
JO<br>
Spoken: 'It's a mean and stormy night<br>
The moors are bleak and bloody.<br>
Thunder claps! Lightning Strikes!<br>
The fair Clarissa, her clothes in disarray,<br>
races across the wild coastal heath-'<br>
<br>
Now she stops!<br>
Now she runs!<br>
Will she escape?<br>
Will she be caught?<br>
<br>
Spoken: With bold determination, <br>
the villainous aristocrat Braxton Prendergast, lurches for her-<br>
<br>
There's no escape.<br>
She's but a child.<br>
And yet she turns to fight<br>
With eyes ablaze!<br>
This noble girl meets his gaze,<br>
Unafraid.<br>
She will not be defiled!<br>
<br>
Clarissa/ Jo<br>
Spoken: Keep away from me you wretch!<br>
<br>
Braxton/ Jo<br>
Spoken: I cannot keep away. Your beauty<br>
draws me. Your passion ignites me.<br>
<br>
I've got to hold you.<br>
<br>
Clarissa<br>
I defy you!<br>
<br>
Braxton<br>
Got to have you.<br>
<br>
Clarissa<br>
Let me by you!<br>
<br>
Braxton<br>
Come close-<br>
<br>
Clarissa<br>
Don't come too close-<br>
<br>
Braxton<br>
Come close-<br>
<br>
Clarissa<br>
Don't come too close-<br>
<br>
Braxton/ Clarissa<br>
So close, so close to me.<br>
<br>
Braxton<br>
Spoken: I'll have her. And the mother too.<br>
<br>
Jo<br>
Spoken: And at that moment, Rodrigo appears in magnificent splendor!<br>
<br>
Rodrigo/ Jo<br>
Spoken: Unhand that woman, villain!<br>
<br>
Braxton<br>
Spoken: Who are you?<br>
<br>
Rodrigo/ Jo<br>
I am your destiny,<br>
Your bitterest foe.<br>
You stole what was rightly mine<br>
Ten long years ago.<br>
You left me cold, alone and forgotten,<br>
Now I'm back to settlet he score-!<br>
<br>
Professor Bhaer<br>
Spoken: Miss March!<br>
<br>
