Climbing Over Rocky Mountain Annotated

[CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Climbing over rocky mountain,
Skipping rivulet and fountain,
Passing where the willows quiver
By the ever-rolling river,
Swollen with the summer rain;
Threading long and leafy mazes
Dotted with unnumbered daisies,
Scaling rough and rugged passes,
Climb the hardy little lasses,
Till the bright sea-shore they gain!

[EDITH]
Let us gaily tread the measure,
Make the most of fleeting leisure,
Hail it as a true ally,
Though it perish bye and bye

[CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Hail it as a true ally,
Though it perish bye and bye!

[EDITH]
Every moment brings a treasure
Of its own especial pleasure;
Though the moments quickly die,
Greet them gaily as they fly!

[CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Though the moments quickly die
Greet them Gaily as they fly!

[KATE]
Far away from toil and care,
Reveling in fresh sea-air,
Here we live and reign alone
In a world that’s all our own.
Here, in this our rocky den,
Far away from mortal men,
We’ll be queens, and make decrees
They may honor them who please.

[CHORUS OF GIRLS]
We’ll be queens, and make decrees
They may honor them who please.

Let us gaily tread the measure,
Make the most of fleeting leisure,
Hail it as a true ally,
Though it perish by-and-by!
Hail it as a true ally,
Though it perish by-and-by!

[KATE, EDITH & CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Let us gaily tread the measure,
Make the most of fleeting leisure,
Hail it as a true ally!

[Dialogue]

[KATE]
What a picturesque spot! I wonder where we are!

[EDITH]
We are quite alone, and the sea is as smooth as glass. Suppose we take off our shoes and stockings and paddle?

[KATE, EDITH & CHORUS OF GIRLS]
Yes, yes! The very thing!
